| 2011 | 4dr SUV 290-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
20.6 mpg so far, which is excellent for a 4x4 tow vehicle. |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 360-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
The MDS Hemi is outstanding. I can cruise at 80mph and knock down 19mpg....at the same time, passing and entering a highway is an easy process with the power available. The towing capabilities are a wonderful plus since I do tow occasionally. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
amazing on the highway. 9.5 l/100 km |

Its a SUV with a V8. If you need gas mileage numbers look elsewhere. If you need to tow stuff and get to work no matter what the roads are like, your gonna burn some gas. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
20mpg at 70 mph is adequate but not great. 14mpg average suburban city driving. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 420-horsepower 6.1L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
13,8 MPG with 93 Octane sucks. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 230-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
Never got above 18 MPG on highway driving. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |

On par for V8 but still drinks fuel |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 195-horsepower 4.0L I6 w/DoD 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
17mpg real world with the inline 6, I expect better. |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed automatic AWD w/low range |
