What are your KKs getting (MPG wise) out on the highway ?

List your YEAR and modifications (if you have them).

Click on the Fuelly icon in my signature. You can see what my KK gets with a stock suspension and A/T tires. On my last highway trip I got 23.6 mpg going between 68 and 72 on I-81. Fuelly also has a way to look up any car by year, so you can see what mpgs people get in real world driving.

23.6 is pretty good!

I'm familiar with Fuelly... good site. That only shows the overall average MPGs.

I'm curious as to the Highway only portion. I'm wanting to know what to expect on long drives from a KK.


TIA.

Scroll down to the logbook at the bottom of my Fuelly page. You'll be able to see which fill-ups had 0-5% city driving. Some recent ones: 23.6, 22.3, 23.6, 22.9, 21.2, 22.0 mpg.

Hey guys:

Quick question what are the best mods to increase my gas milage in a 2012 KK?

Are the mod chips worth it (in terms of miles per gallon)?

I come from Subaru forums (clubwrx.net) so I'm familiar with terminology but that's about it.

Can the Chips be uninstalled to avoid warrantee problems??

Thanks to everyone. First post! :JEEPIN:
