I drove from Seattle to San Diego with my High Tide Wrangler and averaged 22.5 MPG. I took it easy on acceleration, drove 1-2 MPH over the speed limit, and drove behind semi-trucks part of the way (no tail-gating). After 6000 miles I've averaged 18.5 MPG combined Highway and City. Not hyper-miling but driving normally.
That's actually not that bad! I drove my 15 down to Florida and back similar situation highway semis, but I was probably not doing 1 over the speed limit. I think we averaged about 16 or 17. Can't Remember it was 8 years ago already! Wow How time flies!
I have a 2018 JLUR stock atm and if I can keep it in 8th gear on the highway I consistently get 21-23 mpg at around 75-85mph From what I have heard, the Mopar lift and 35s will drop the MPG about 5mpg. I have heard the gladiators get a bit worse due to the extra weight of them and the wind drag of the bed. LOVED the end of the video! lol the curse of all Jeep lovers.... buying that next one after the last one has been gone a bit. the love/ curse is real! haha
Excellent review as I was wondering about how this model behaved on the highway for road noise and drive ability. The High Tide Jeep you drove looks like it has the full hardtop and not the sun rider top. As I was thinking you only get this variant with the sun rider top. As one vlogger noted the sun rider top creates more wind noise. I was wondering your thoughts on the above? Thank you.
So you get the sunrider top as an addition. It is included as an option, So you don't have to put it on. It comes with the full hard top AND the Sunrider top. Yes the sunrider top does add more wind noise.
Jeep screwed me on the gauge cluster on the Beach Edition🤨 I have the temp and fuel in the center with the temp in the upper left corner and fuel in the right corner. What you have is much better in this High Tide. But I did get painted fenders😂
Horrible practices. 69 mph is not where you measure fuel consumption compared to sticker. 10 -20 miles is not enough to get a proper average at speed. I managed 31mpg in the diesel going from Colorado to AZ and 28 on the way back. I deliberately picked a 65mph route.. anything above that and my fuel consumption goes up dramatically. Like 23-24 at 70mph. 5moh makes a huge difference

did something similar and got about 19-20 mpg. I've got the extreme recon package and the 3.6L.
I have a ‘22 JLUR XR 3.6 eTorque and I think it has a great look, great ride, has get up and go, & stops great too!
Absolutely Love the Orange. My neighbor just bought an Orange one.😊

You misread the EPA label. It's 24 mpg "going downhill"
Lol
Curious if they base it off 55mph as a highway speed for mpg’s??
Pretty sure the gas milage on the sticker is based off of the stock Sport. Im sure those 35's make a huge difference.
Yeah it wasnt suprising that it got less than the sticker i was shocked that it pretty much got better mileage in the city
It is
maybe I missed it, but I didn't hear what engine is in the jeep
This one had the 3.6L V6
@@Circleofcycles2 thanks
I apologize that I may have missed it. What size wheels are they and what size engine?
3.6L V6 and the tires are BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO2 LT315/70 R17 tires. Thanks!

Body matched fender flares look great. You got the Beach edition? Super jealous 😂
@@zacharymitchellwtx I know where you can get one if you're looking.
@Joe Smith definitely interested..However, I'm in Texas.
@@JoeSmith-nu8oo what color?
@@zacharymitchellwtx Black and it looks damn good.I almost want to trade for it too.
2100 rpm at 70 mph on 35's ain't bad
I must have missed it but what engine was in this jeep?
