Uh, why are you getting excited that a 2WD Xterra rated higher than a
4WD Wrangler?
If you want to keep things in perspective, look at #166, Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND 4WD Sport Utility 4D. That's higher on the scale, and a 4WD.
Yes, Wranglers get terrible gas mileage. In the 32,000 miles I put on mine last year, it got 15 MPG consistantly (hwy or city). The pre-05 Xterras aren't doing too much better, from what people have been posting over the years.
Glad I have an 05 X now. Better fuel economy, more power! But I didn't see a 4WD Xterra on the list, hmmm.
