SUV gas mileage?

[Panakk]

Anyone who drives a V8 Jeep Grand Cherokee, what do you get for gas mileage? Gas mileage for all other SUVs?

I'm thinking of buying a 4X4 because i'm sick of snow driving in my Honda and not to mention it's the best time to switch since my car recently got broken into.

Gas mileage for all other SUVs?

I drive a '00 Nissan Xterra SE, 2x wheel with a V6. I average 21 mpg, probably 70%/30% highway/city miles.

My dad has a V8 Eddie Bauer Explorer (1999 model) and he averages about 19 mpg. I took two of my friends with me on a week long camping trip to NH and we averaged 22 mpg on the highway with a pretty good load inside. When we're towing our boat (just an 18 foot I/O runabout) with it, we average 16-17 mpg.

If you don't need to tow things and don't need the space, I'd recommend a Subaru instead. Better mileage and just as good in the on-road situations you'll encounter.

Hey you live down the road from me. I drive a '95 Rodeo @ 12/15mpg. 😉 Newer generation Rodeos are up to 19.5mpg.

I've got an 03 GMC Envoy with the I6. I usually average around 18-20 mpg.

I have a 2000 Isuzu Rodeo 4wd (v6 3.2) and I get around 25mpg on the highway. I was really surprised how well it does.
