Re: Perfomance/Gas Mileage Tips for TJ
Unless you also changed your speedo gear out when you regeared, you're
actually getting a bit less than that...
I WAS getting 12MPG with my 33s and my old 3.55:1 diff gears. Now I'm
getting 17+ MPG with my 33s and new 4.56 diff gears... So I guess I'm
actually getting somewhere around 15MPG in reality. :)
Yes I know it's easy to change the speedo gear. I'm just lazy and am
not really bothered with doing an approximate conversion in my head.
Not to mention it keeps me from getting speeding tickets because I now
think I'm going faster than I actually am ;-)

She's driving up and coasting down a curvy road, in her commute,
aerodynamics doesn't play a role.
