Philistine Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 What mileage do you get with your MJ? I'm getting just under 15 mpg with the 2.5L running 35's, which isn't as bad as I thought it'd be. I'm sure I'm on the low end but I was just wondering what other people were getting. Please include your engine and tire size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jteckmann Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 2.5L, 4sp, 3.55 gears, 235/75-15 tires, stock suspension. I get about 21-22mpg as a daily driver. I've got up to the 25-26 range with a lot of highway miles thrown it. I've been between 18-19 in town and when hauling. I drive with a light foot.

Geonovast Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 91 MJ 4.0 5 speed - never got around to checking, but I would guess about 16. 91 MJ 2.5 5 speed on 3.55s - Last time I did checks on a 560 mile trip, they ranged from 16 to 23.... But there's something wrong with it. 88 XJ 4.0 Auto - was getting 26 before I swapped the motor, now it's getting 18.5 :wall: 99 XJ 4.0 Auto - 17.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

streetjeep2.5 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 My 94 4x2 4.0 Cherokee, when at its best, was getting 23-24 on the highway. I got rid of the puny tailpipe right away and added a KN filter. Think more air coming in and a little less back pressure helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
