I agree. Something wasn't right with his Ecodiesel Jeep or he's not figuring the fuel economy correctly--- or he has a VERY heavy foot. Like any gas motor, a diesel will get less fuel economy if you drive it like you stole it. All ICE will.
Hey, I am not a Jeep owner, but I just bought a 2022 Ram 1500 Crew Cab Longhorn with the Ecodiesel and I LOVE it. I have had Hemi Rams in the past, but the Ecodiesel gets about 40% better fuel economy, tows MUCH better (no more 4800 RPM "screams" up a big hill with 8K pounds behind it. Just...
The Ecodiesel from 2020 on is a completely different engine where 80% of the parts were changed. It is referred to as a Gen3 Ecodiesel and has 260 HP and 480 lb-ft of torque in the Ram, with Wrangler and Gladoator models being somewhat less but still great.
