i could get 25mpg from my old 1987 jeep cherokee 4x4.It was a 5speed and a 4.0.Despit ethat it gets way better mpg than our 3.0 auto,4wd, 1991 4runner(16 hwy).
That said i would never again buy an suv because parts cost at least 2x as much as a car.And mpg sucks.
Cars also are much better handling.
I had a mazda station wagon that i cruised/camped in for 3 months in the rocky mtns.More convenient,better mpg,more usable space than my jeep cherokee.
