None of my friends with 5.2 ZJs get close to my mileage no matter how they try. But yes, when loaded, I wish for a bit more power. When I once towed a Cherokee on a tow dolly 160 miles, it wasn't so much the power I wanted as much as I needed a lot more BRAKE! Though I have considered a turbo at 5 psi...

Ironically, the one guy I know with the 5.9 gets better mileage than the 5.2 guys do.
