Americas What is your petrol US gal mpg?

I’m averaging around 20-22 around town, 19 at 70 on highway and around 16 towing a turtleback trailer. I’m coming from a 89 Land Cruiser so my pedal isn’t heavy and I plan my momentum. 🤪
Best mileage by computer to date.

That’s probably 18mpg at best.
Mine is a petrol Grenadier. If I’m steady I can get 20mpg (imperial) last weekend with over. 500 motorway miles and 15hrs off road driving and I averaged 18mpg.
A mate of mine who has a petrol Grenadier towed his boat from southern UK to north of Scotland last weekend. Combined boat and trailer weight approx 2 tonnes. Just over 600 mile journey in 12 hours. Average just over 16mpg (imperial)
 
With my gas gren, running 93 octane, I get 14-15mpg around town and a little over 17mpg on the highway. It has been pretty consistent the last 1000 or so miles. Computed by tracking the odometer and quantity of gas filled. No raised air intake or anything attached to the exterior. Running the KO2 tires. That's highways speed of around 70 mph, lightly loaded.
 
Remember that the computer calculated MPG is usually 1.5-2.5mpg higher than actual
Definitely, the onboard computer always shows more mpg than my raw odometer/gallons tracking. And I would add that according to my GPS, my speedometer is 3 mph fast at 70, so my odometer readings are high, which means I'm getting even less than what I posted previously. About 4-5% less :(

I appreciate your care in making this comment. I may check mine in a similar way.
 
So we still can’t really get anything answered? We’ve got 21.25 and 15mpg. Need a little more consistency
I have about 12000 miles and I have averaged mid 14s once broken in.

I was about 15 mpg on average, mostly highway miles. After mounting 2 Jerry Cans on the drivers side to the external molle panel I seem to be averaging about 13 mpg

Any particular reason you keep them on all the time?
