Re: 4 cyl. mileage, lift & tire size
I am absolutely certain. Even used a calculator. Used the trip odometer.
Stock tire size, so it should be correct. Miles divided by gallons used.
But I am running the 2.4 liter engine.
Anyone else running a 2.4? What king of mpg are they reporting?

I can't speak for others, but my 4-banger won't go much faster than 55
(well, I have managed to scrape my way up to 70 from time-to-time, but
the Jeep ain't happy about it).
