I get 17-20 daily driving in my still completely stock 21 ORP.
The sweet spot seems to be about 50-65 mph. I drive a lot of two lane "highways" for work and have gotten up to 26-27 mpg on some trips with no traffic, stoplights, etc. driving in that mph range.

I've had my '2 off-road now for 4000 miles and have gotten 21 mpg on average. Nothing worse than 20, nothing better than 22 mpg.
In Canada that's about 10.7L/100 kms to about 11.7. It is lifted 1 inch in the front and still running the factory tires.

More stop and go in bigger cities.
That said I’ve been averaging around 17.5. I get around 19.5 on the freeway and about 15.5 in the city. I have a 2” lift with a 140 lb steel bumper and I’m running BFG KO2s. I get the best mileage at 80 mph. Seriously!

Air resistance is a factor of velocity squared. No possible way that driving 80 returns better mpg than if you were to go 60 on that same stretch of road.

16.6 and hasn't moved far from there in over a year. Lot's of short trips around town, some towing, with occasional highway. I drive like a grandma too. The last long reasonably hilly highway ride of about 350 miles I got about 18.5mpg going 80mph most of the way. 2" lift and stock size KO2s

I just got back from a 2-day, 1000 mile drive on my new KM3's. I was very happy. I averaged 21 MPG for the majority of the trip, and I was heavy on the throttle in parts. Not too shabby.

13 mpg, at best. 35" MTRs, poor aero mods, and nearly 6000lb curb weight aren't great for fuel economy

6 hours of freeway driving to and from our cabin, mixed with 4 hours of dirt Forest Service roads, with a roof basket loaded up, and got 17.5 average mpg.
In town, every day driving, 13+.

My 2011 with 145,000 or so miles gets about 18.5 around town and I've seen over 22 many times on longer road trips. Over 23 if I can keep the highway speed down between 65-72, mostly flat terrain.
My Harbor Freight hitch carrier doesn't seem to affect MPG at all. That thing has been a lifesaver on family trips.
Stock size Michelin Costco tires, no lift.

hitch carrier is the way to go. i have the enclosed hitch carrier too and never had a problem with mpg. everything is very accessible and the center of gravity is lower too.
