2.3 Fuel Economy 1000 Mile Report Card

Hi All

Just cheking in on gas mileage. I have the Base with the 2.3 I'm running the AS tires. 87 Octane fuel and have my tires pumped up to spec. I drive about 60/40 highway.

My roof has been on about 90% of the time.

I'm 1000 miles in and have been averaging about 22.1 MPG.

Overall I'm very happy with the 2.3. Love how it sounds like an angry diesel on startup. 10/10 so far. If you aren't pulling trailers, get the 2.3

Catdog7799, David

Thanks for the update on real world mileage. Curious what the Sasquatch package will do to those numbers.

How big is your tank? What’s your normal range?

My dealer let me drive around their Sasquatch base model for a few hours Saturday and I got about 15 MPG. Not exactly the best, I don't care I'm still getting one.

Extra Fuel, Yeah, Me too. Don't like the idea of Roto Packs Fuel cans on the roof. Have seen a kit that attaches the Roto Pack to a strap around the spare tire. Might be a solution.

The roof option is a no go for me as well. Hoping some other options become available. The Bronco aftermarket has a lot of catching up to do. The Jeep guys have all sorts of cool stuff to spend their money on.

Rockslide EZ pack on my Rubicon and will fit on my Bronco too!

Auto transmission and I keep the Start/Stop on. It will turn itself off until the truck is warmed up. It does make a difference.
