My wife drives her 1989 Range Rover all over the place, bone stock except for 1" lift HD springs and Bilstein Shocks & stabilizer, and kept well tuned, gets 17mpg,

and I drive my highly modified 1997 Discovery I about a third of the time to work [62mile round trip] to keep everything lubed & functioning, and especially I drive it if there is snow or an impending large storm like Sandy getting ready to hit us, then I throw the chain saw in the back with other gear in order to get through [I am a third shift ER charge nurse and cannot call in due to something one can be prepared to overcome like weather, downed limbs, etc]. Gets 12-14mpg,
:coffeedrink:

otherwise, I typically drive my 1989 Dodge W250 LE Cummins Turbo Diesel 4x4, gets 16-19 mpg depending on time of year [winter blend gets 15-16, summer blend gets 18-19] :ylsmoke:
