What's your average gas mileage?

[AnthologyCT]

I'm just curious as to what everybody is getting in gas mileage ............ I'm hearing these nightmare stories about gas mileage.

In the city, I'm averaging about 15.5 mpg
On the highway, I'm averaging around 24.5 mpg

And I haven't done jack to the vehicle .......... completely stock.

One thing that I do when I want to check my highway mpg average is to make sure that the minute I'm at highway speed (after the entrance ramp), on a long trip is to reset the mpg calculator. Sometimes I have to push it 3 to 4 times before it resets to a high value, then I let it winde down from there to settle at somewhere around 24.

Also, one thing I noticed is that once you get over about 68 mile per hour, the mileage begins to tank really really fast.

What are you guys getting for City/Hwy?

 

[desertkj]

Well combined I'm getting 16 right now. Not sure of city/highway

City driving lately has been around 17-18..sometimes a little higher. I've been doing alot of highway travel recently and that's giving me about 21-22....this is on a stock 3.7 automatic 4x4.

 

[JeepJeepster]

15 city, 18-21 HW.

 

[MoladoGuy]

Yup, 15 city but not sure about the highway (maybe 18+).

That's with a lift and tires, etc...

 

[jfortier777]

13-14

 

[reload40s]

I seem to be getting somewhere in the low 20s with mixed city/highway driving. I hope my good luck continues when the engine is fully broken in.

misses is running about 18.5-20.5 MPG on her 2004 liberty 4x4.

 

[Marlon_JB2]

That sounds about like what my 3.7L Liberty was getting. Cool.

 

[hyde]

[especko]

[iluvmyliberty]

I get 19.9 always! No matter if I drive good or bad I can't break 20. I drive city and highway about the same amount.

 

[Stampey]

Bah always with the guys in the 13-15 range depending on my driving style with an 02. NEED TUNE UP BADLY! ](*,)

I have 4300 miles on my dead stock 2006 Liberty (6-speed), and my mileage is fine. It has improved steadily since new, and seems to have stabilized now. I check mileage every tankful as a check on how my cars are running, and over the last 875 miles, about 70 % two-lane highway, 20% washboard dirt (third gear), and 10 % downtown Denver, I averaged 22.0 MPG. This includes a 3% odometer correction for the stock tires, which make the speedo/odo read about 3% faster/longer than true mileage. It's also on roads varying from 7000 to 12,000 feet elevation. I sure can't complain about that.

On the other hand, when I head out on the trails in my area, the MPG trakes a dive and seems to run about 12 MPG high range, 8 MPG low range, which is really pretty good, and pretty much the same as my Toyota pickup and the Amigo I used th have - which makes sense, since they are all geared about the same, same diameter tires, and similar weights.

Anyhow, long story short, I'm very pleased with my mileage.

All my driving is mixed city/highway, and I average about 19.5mpg doing that. I did take a highway trip last week, and I got 22mpg, with a passenger, car load of stuff, and running the A/C the whole time.
