Man, there really seems to be a descrepancy with fuel economy!
My 2001, completely stock, with 75k miles is lucky to run 15mpg highway. As a matter of fact, my 1993 Grand Wagoneer with full-time 4WD and a 5.2L got better mileage than my little 3000lb XJ.
I see countless posts about poor fuel economy, with no apparent fixes. Seems to me that if the window sticker says 15 city/20 highway, you should be able to at least come within the ballpark.
Otherwise, Jeep should be paying to fix the problem IMHO.
On a related note...how much fuel is supposed to be left in the tank when the idiot light comes on? Is is something like 2 gals? I know the tank is 20 gals...
