    Thinking about finally making the move from a 1st Gen to a 2nt Gen looking at a 2014 4x4 v6 DCSB can anyone that owns one give me real world MPG? and just how they like it in general

    when I was stock, i was around 19mpg average. When I had the s/c installed, dropped down to 17mph. Now with full steel bumpers, 1/4" steel skids, 33" heavier tires + spare on the swingout, and other mods, i average 12.5mpg (13.25ish when you adjust for the odometer). On stock gearing at the moment.

    2012 DCSB 4.0V6 4X4. Not a 2014 but close enough for mileage info.
    I work out every tank by hand and I've averaged between 16-17 combined highway/city mpg.
    I can get 21 on the highway. But that's keeping it 65mph and less.

    Again, it's not a 2014, but l love it. It does everything that I ever want of it. I love thst it drives like a truck - I'm not into trucks that drive like cars.

    I don't know if this helps.

    When I was stock I could get 21-22 on highway, 19 around town. Now with tires that are 6-7 pounds heavier than stock and carrying 350-400 lbs of winch, skids, sliders ~17 on highway, 15 around town.
