So I can get 1-2 MPG by running the AT's on the street? Sweet. :)

Im running the AT's on the street and will switch to the MT's for the trailrides.

1 MPG in an 18 gallon tank = 18 miles. Seeing as my Jeep gets 15 MPG if its lucky, this is like getting an extra gallon of fuel or saving $3.85 per tank. That 1 MPG will add up quick!

Dunno. The other mods look like snake oil. What do the mechanics here think?

LOL the money you save will go toward paying for the Uno's you were having today..or was it Wendy's? Saw you jeep parked over there today when i came out of the Wendy's drive thru...

Unscramble,

That was my Jeep you saw. I was at the M&G Wed night. Got in the Jeep after, went to start it - nothing. H2 and I tried to jump it - Nothing. It was 11PM and the wife and kids were already asleep. Jeep got left there and H2 carried his fallen buddy all the way home. (Thanks H2! :))

I was not able to get back out to it until yesterday afternoon. (Long story here as well, JMU Jeep to the rescue yesterday afternoon :)) Verdict -Dead Optima Blue top and problems with the starter. Jeep is at Chantilly getting a new starter and having leaky front axle seals fixed under warranty. Since it was an Optima, I gotta replace that myself.

Chantilly Dodge to the rescue once again... Just don't start demanding $!^T... :)

Yup! Finally got that key for the Durango finished while I was there yesterday. Brakes had been squeekin, and I had been noticing alot more pedal travel on stopping. (Bull Bar, winch and all that extra armor is putting a hurtin on em.) They called me and I got a great deal on them as well while it was there. (Could not have done it myself cheaper ;))

I know better than to demand extras when Im being taken care of. :)

JMU Jeep was there yesterday..... I only asked for the Beltway discount and I made it a point to thank the service manager in front of others for remaining past 5 PM to insure that my service requests for keys and the leaking seals were done.

And now, back to your regularly scheduled gas mileage thread.
