I'm at 19mpg with 38psi on my LE... stock LE wheels and no lift. But, I got 15.5 for my first 1000 miles, so am hoping it goes past 20 soon...

How do you check this?Curious as to the MPG folks are getting and with what models and options.
I'm averaging about 20 MPG now after 3200 miles. JT Rubicon.
Milage was pretty bad at first averaging around 16 till about 1500 miles. Really started improving after that. My avg includes towing a boat, long drives into a headwind and driving with a payload in back.
MPG takes a nose dive big time above 65 mph, towing and strong headwinds. Driving over 45 with the top and doors off causes a significant drop in MPG too.
. Have you adjusted for tire size?My average over 6000 miles is at 14.4mpg (35" tires, Smittybilt Bumper, Winch, Black Rhino Armory Rims, 2.5" lift). The best I got on a single tank was 20mpg but that was coming back from Death Valley to OC so mostly flat/down hill I suppose. Running long distances on gravel in 4wd High gets me around 12Mpg. I'm sure a re-gear will help with some lighter rims lol. I reset my trip A every tank that gives me my average for that tank. My trip B has not been reset since the day I got it (thats how I know the 14.4mpg). I'm not exactly known for a light right foot either.
I take it you mean calibrated the speedometer? yea unfortunatelyV
