Hey ddt,
There ARE worse places to be "stuck" than Stuart. We're expecting a sh!tload of rain/snow/mixed in the next 72hrs so hang tight. Not to suggest you'll have any problems dealing with that sort of weather with what you're driving BUT it's the "other" drivers. TO will get rain but Ottawa will get a mix with upwards of 15cm for late next week. Gan'....rain. Hey you don't have to shovel rain. That's from Environment Canada and you know how right THEY usually are.
Stay warm....hahahahaha

Picked up your 2011 wrangler not too worried about the fuel mileage. If you are (i know you aren't more of a generalization) then I wouldn't purchase a Jeep.

Love it such a great ride.

Does anyone know if the dealer is right saying 275 - 65 - 18's are the biggest you can put on the JK without a lift change???

Here's my mileage: we filled up at Alexandria Bay ,NY about 15 miles from our house on the USA side.
Next stop : Binghamton ,NY $37.01
11.08g/41.94L 256.1K 17mpg/16.4/100L
Carlisle , Pennsilvania $39.62
12.58g/47.6L 312.2K 19mpg/15.2/100L
Fredricksburg, Va. $37.50
12.50g/47.3L 293.5K 18mpg/16.1/100L
Kenly, North Carolina $42.40
13.9g/52.6L 331.3K 18mpg/15.9/100L
Florence, South Carolina $27.25
9.4g/35.6L 223.9K 18mpg/15.9/100K
Savannah, Ga $36.50
11.7g/44.2L 288.7K 18mpg/15.9/100L
Daytona Beach ,Fl $39.00
12.4g/46.9L 353.8K 21.0mpg/13.3/100L
I have to tell you that my last range to Daytona Beach was generally in excess of 80mph and as you can see I got the best milage !!
Still not sure which gears are in the Jeep but it's probably 3.73's ?

I'm leaving Florida most likely 5am Monday morning and I'll post my milage from the way home using Premium fuel this time.
Oh, the first tank of fuel I was in 4x4 for a while as the roads were terrible on Route 81 S

tnt008 hit it right on the money.. I average around 12L/100 km hwy and 15-16 city... Got a 2010 JKU Rubi with the 4.10s, 6 spd manual. I try to pu$$yfoot it when possible and that usually helps but in the end, it is a Jeep so guzzling was expected. Enjoy your ride, its very impressive, even stock!

My mpg truly sux. $50-$60 a week and I work 11km from home. NVR MIND, forgot the wife steals it every morning the other 4 working days. Stupid marriage license. How come that license doesn't expire every couple of years? No offense ladies.
