How did the lift and tires affect fuel economy?
Lulz. with that much lift, the 265/70r16 on Moab's, and the ARB bumper I average around 24-25. I live in the country in Utah so most of the time I am just cruising around at 50-65 mph. Highway it gets about 26 if I stay at 65 but starts to drop off above that.
Before all that stuff, which all was installed at the same time, I was averaging 29 mpg and normally getting 34 all highway and had seen 36 once or twice. This was in MA with a little more city driving on average.
All this was based on the EVIC so take the absolute numbers with a grain of salt but I should give you a rough idea of the decrease.
I only had the jeep here in Utah for about a month or two before my wife hit a deer which is why I got the ARB and put in the lift to hold it up.
