2006 Jeep Wrangler Real Gas Mileage: Pros

2006 2dr SUV 190-horsepower 4.0L I6
6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range
If I fill it up before it gets to a quarter tank it gets around 15MPG, but if I wait until the light comes on and then do the math I'm getting 17. Either way, this is not really the kind of vehicle you buy for the gas mileage. see full Jeep Wrangler review

6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range
The low gearing for off road means 16 mpg around town and only 18-20 mpg highway. The brick-like aerodynamics means 15-16 mpg on the highway with a head wind. see full Jeep Wrangler review
