Drove my 08 JK X out to Dallas from SC for Christmas. Ran about 75-80 both ways and got about 17mpg. 2600 miles and a butt-load of gas and it ran great. I drove non-stop (except fuel and food) 17 hours coming back. I think it wore me down more than the jeep. Plus, brought back a Full Traction 3.5" lift Christmas present from son-in-law.
Hope all had a great Christmas. Scored a new Casio chronograph, Come and Take It t-shirt, golf gloves and balls, Magpul iPhone 5 phone cover, and a new spotting scope for the range. How did you do?
 
Drove mine fron Cedar city, Utah to paducah Kentucky to work. 1700 miles one way. Got about 12 mpg. ( 37 trail grapplers with 5:38's.)
Came across 70 and overheated going over Vail pass.
Taking 40 when I get off this boat to go home on January 8th. Got 18.2 going across 40 last time.
Dont get my presents till I get back home.

Sounds like your rig did good!
