Lift and tire size? I'm hitting 8-11mpg accelerating up hills on a stock JT with heavier M/T tires on steel rims (but approximately the same size as OEM).I’m barely getting 11 MPG around town. I put the meter front and center and am very conscious of my pedal discipline. I expected at least 15 MPG and a larger gas tank. A range of less than 300 miles per fill-up is irresponsible today.
Other than that, with the hilly nature of KY I'm getting 17-19mpg combined with M/T tires and about 20-22mpg with OEM A/T on ally rims.
I'm very cautious of pedal discipline. Things like conserving momentum and maintaining speed going up hills without having to floor the accelerator are things that stuck with me from my dad's teachings.
