about to do the summer vacation thang in a Jeep Cherokee. Whoops.)

A Cherokee is a fairly efficient SUV compared with Suburbans, Tahoes,
Expeditions, gas-powered Excursions and the like.

I am going on a 4,000 miles trip in September with 3 or 4 of my buddies.
We will get a whopping 8.5 to 9.5 MPG on diesel. We will tow an RV.

My regular car gets 40MPG as I don't drive my truck that much especially
now.
