So I have a 2013 JKUR and I am getting 15.5 - 16 mpg and it would be very helpful if anyone could give some tips on how to get better gas mileage. Oh and by the way, it is completely stock.

Sell it and buy a Prius. JK, there really is nothing you can do, that's what you will get from it.

15.5 MPG is more than I got stock, and it was a lightweight 4 door with soft top and factory half doors. Honestly, you might be able to squeeze a bit more out of it if you change your driving habits a bit. Otherwise, that's pretty good for a JK in my opinion. Not trying to be a smart ass, but Napalm is right. A Jeep is not the best daily driver you can get, nor the most economical vehicle you can get. A Jeep is a lifestyle. You give up some conveniences for a whole lot of fun and memories!

In my 2016 I usually average about 16.5. 75% of my driving is highway.

I get about 14 in town and the very best I've ever gotten was 22 (then drove back up the mountain later that day[emoji90]). You can pump up the tires however, this isn't a very good solution for various reasons. You can get new skinny and smooth tires but they aren't very good in the mud and on the trails. I hear there is a new15mpg aero kit by Tera-fix for $25k.
Seriously it is a jeep, heavy, square, a shit ton of air resistance and a crap drag coefficient.

Enjoy the reasons you bought it, like it's fun, it's cool, the top comes off, it will go just about anywhere. If not, do what Piginajeep said.

With my 2014 JKUR that is about what I got stock. When I put the 35s on it didn't really drop any. [emoji106]
Pull the top and doors and go wheelin, throw MPGs out the window. You bought a jeep, they are meant for fun not savin gas.

To help convince the wife that we needed to upgrade from the WJ V8 to a JKUR I told her we'd save money on gas....how wrong I was. Pretty sure it uses more but I try not too look
Try out the Automatic. It monitors your driving habits and gives you feedback. It also has audio alerts to remind you to drive more smoothly and efficiently. It's worth a shot.
