depends on tranny. Justin has 31's, 4.0 and AW4 auto. He gets 20 mpg's on the highway since his axles are geared to 3.55's.
When I went from stock to 31's on my 5 speed, I saw a drastic change in MPG, probably to about 14 mpg highway ish. I also couldnt use 5th gear anymore. My axles were geared to 3.07s

what do they put in the gas that makes it suck so bad? I heard it was stuff that reduces emmisions so it doesnt get caught in the snow or whatever and pollute the environment more.

A mud tire to an all terrain will also affect gas mileage.
