TJ A Gas Saver?
 
You got it is all relative, filled up the Dodge Ram for $75.00. Well the
Ram gets 14 MPG I am now using the TJ as my daily driver averaging 20.1 MPG,
Yep the TJ is a gas saver who would of thought? Not the Green weenies!

My Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins, gets 20.5 mpg. Course, it's got a manual tranny,
so that figgers. Automatic transmissions are fuel hogs.

My 97 TJ 2.5L gets 18.5 mpg, and that's carrying 300 lbs of feed, plus my
200 lb butt.

The Dodge has 150,000 miles on it, so, it barely broken in. The TJ has
94,500 miles.

The USA could become fuel self sufficient if our high dollar congress would
just eliminate automatic transmissions, and limit personal vehicles to 150
HP.

Bet me...

Ya know, you can always start making your own bio diesel for the pickup.
