As a 1995 Wrangler owner I will attest that this is a perfect platform to show that aerodynamics is the greatest factor in gas mileage. I average 22 mpg either suburbs or highway. Pulled the cage off the roof and went from 16 mpg to 20 mpg. Smaller thinner tires no significant change. Synthetic oil, free flow cat back, new plugs and KN air filter, no significant change. Tire pressure at 40 lbs over 36 adds 1-2 mpgs. Tail wind on the highway and I can hit 24 mpg. Some day I will add belly pans or air dam.
