How does this sound to you other 6cyl owners?
In reckon that is $hithouse fuel economy, my daughter's WG grand cherokee 4.0L gets 11.3L/100km cruising not towing and 14.4L/100km towing a 2 tonne horse float. I changed the front O2 sensor a little while back and it improved remarkably to the these figures.
Use a new genuine mopar O2 sensor as the aftermarket ones don't seem to achieve the same results.
