Wear lighter shoes is about all I can think of or check with the weather
service and make sure your trips are all down wind...

Trade it for a Corolla.

Jeeps are bricks, about as non-aerodynamic as it gets. All three I've
owned seemed to get the same mileage regardless of speed, load, etc...

If it's got good plugs, a clean air filter, properly inflated tires, and
synthetic lubes, you're getting as good as it gets.

Don't mash on the pedals with so much gusto. Roll on to and off of the gas,
coast to the lights - especially the red ones - and anticipate the traffic
in front of you, coasting when it slows.

By coasting, I mean to lift your foot off of the gas, not depress the clutch
or shift into N.
