How much does driving 4-wheel drive in the MPG by driving in 2 wheel drive low?
For a 2005 Jeep Liberty, do not go down in 4-wheel-section of its MPG in half, because twice as many wheels are operating? If not, how much MPG is lost? Actually, the four-wheel drive for snow and ice is used.
A Liberty 2WD gets 18mpg highway about 15 ... in 4WD, it is 10-14mpg, but in 4WD, you should not try to exceed 45 mph, or you'll be able to run from damage transfer case and transmission. Are you using the 4WD for snow and ice, which is exactly when you should use it, chances are you do only up to 35 hours miles anyway, so it is possible to high-end mileage, 14mpg or get a bit more if you simply gas and brakes, and on relatively flat roads. Deep snow or mud creates more resistance and thus causes the engine to work harder, resulting in lower mpg. On a side note, everyone should be a selectable 4WD with a drive few miles (4-5) in 4WD mode every month just to keep the transfer case in order and to check whether everything works as it should ... so if you need it It will not be stuck. been there - done ...
