Realistic gas mileage?

Typically get about 21 mpg. Highway and city mix.

 

(Nelly 4x4) I think all DuraTracs are LT's tire rack shows them at 60lbs each...i found the lightest P285/70R17 in Kenda Kleever A/T at 45 lbs each, then 21 lb FN wheel, the kicker is i paid 185.00 each for the Kenda's & thats from a brick & mortar store january of 2025 (they also come in a more aggressive MT). Point is, im sure tire weight, rolling resistance, aero dynamics (from lift kit) winter versus summer blend fuels, top speed, wind, uphill/downhill,,,,were looking at a "shit sandwich" of factors. I have a 1/4 of a tanks worth of fuel before i can calculate my 1st tank of fuel with the lift & tires on plus the winter blend so i don't think i will see 19.6 before lift on 265/16s then 16.6 after lift & 285/17. Really doubt you have a motor issue thats effecting yor mileage its just yor right foot mixed in with all the above

 

i am very close to yor set up with the same motor & 6 spd.....will not be happy if i end up at 15 !!! you may want to check to see if a buddy snuck over at nite & replaced yor spare tire with 800lb boat anchor as a joke

 

There is no realistic mileage.

YMMV.



As indicated by all the other previous mileage threads. But carry on, sage contributors, carry on. There's always room for another circle jerk on a model that was released in 2005.
