That's a bone stock one I'm sure. I remember getting 21 in my Xterra before the mod-bug bit me lol

And you never will going 70-75. Mpgs are calculated going like 55 mph or thereabouts.

I can touch 20 MPG even with 70-75MPH cruising speeds with a 4WD Xterra. That is tank after tank repeatable numbers. Drops a couple digits if towing. And been over 20 many times, sometimes even back to back.
So a 2WD is good for a couple more MPG over a 4WD. For a stock truck that isn't being driving like a race car those published numbers are likely very accurate. I bet I could get a repeatable 22 MPG out of a 2WD V6 Frontier. And get that consitently and with normal driving patterns (none of that hypermiling crap).

I never got close to it when my pro4x frontier was stock.. I wonder how much of a hit you take with the factory roof rack..

I've seen 20+ only a handful of times. Some were all highway at 70+, others were 55 MPH backroads and 2-lane highways.

Yeah, I looked that up after I made my post. I still lament
I feel ya though. I used to have a speed 3. More than a few times I was able to get 9mpg for a tank. And it was a 4 cylinder.
