Ugly Duck off-road
 

So when I first started off-roading with my Jeep it was burning about 1.6 gallons per hour.

This last outing a couple of weeks ago we road it hard for 8 hours completing 6 trails. It used only 8 gallons of fuel.

How did you manage to drop fuel consumption by almost 40%?

Hypermudding.

He said the road was hard, so that helps tremendously. ;)

Mostly fixing broken stuff. Tuning the carburetor, upgraded the ignition to something that actually works. Improved traction so I spend less time stuck. Of course turning off the engine when waiting on someone else to navigate an obstacle.

Yes Frank the roads out here are real hard...:thumbup:

Note, that wasn't one of the trails we did, these were quite a bit easier.
