Ideas for making my jeep more fuel efficient?
It's a 2000 jeep cherokee sport and it supposedly gets a combined 17 mpg and I'd like to get that as high as possible. I'm going to remove the roof rack and I'm considering getting full moon hubcaps..will that make a significant difference? And any other suggestions?

Mods are nice, but most importantly - learn to drive with economy in mind. Driving technique can trump nearly any mod, and is pretty much free.
As far as mods go though, look into a grille block, and maybe a hot air intake. HAI works on some vehicles, and not on others. DOn't know about the Jeeps if it works or not. -Jay |
If you can stand to lose the 4WD, there may be savings in physically removing as much of the system as possible. Depends what kind of drivetrain it has.

There isn't a lot you can do to a jeep while leaving it a jeep. the point of a functional jeep is it's lack of economy. 4wd, ground clearance, big knobby tires, big torqey engine.
mods are the same stuff that goes for any car: lower it (good luck finding lowering kits for a jeep :-p) exhaust (headers, cats, pipes. loud does not equal good) inflate tires, as well as if you need new ones, tallest tires you can get grill block |
