Sell Jeep, buy Toyota Prius. :) Actually, if yours is not broken in
yet, you'll probably get better mpg down the road. 10 mpg hwy is low. Look for around 15 in stock condition for a six banger. What mods have you done?

Re: Perfomance/Gas Mileage Tips for TJ
funny...trade my 04' rubi for a prius...i'll keep that in mind. I have done
no mods, the rubi has < 4k miles, others in the group seem to think that is the reason for the poor mileage...hopefully it will improve before gas hit's 3.00 a gallon. thx "twaldron" <thomas@OBVIOUSrubicons.com> wrote in message news:qjWpc.687$Aq4.359@newssvr23.news.prodigy.com. .. > Sell Jeep, buy Toyota Prius. :) Actually, if yours is not broken in > yet, you'll probably get better mpg down the road. 10 mpg hwy is low. > Look for around 15 in stock condition for a six banger.
