My 2004 Jeep TJ (4.0 Auto 3.73 gears) and M101A2
We recently took both 400 miles on a camping trip, and the trailer weight was near the 2000lb tow capacity of the Jeep, plus cargo cover. I estimate 11 mpg, with the overdrive disabled, at full posted highway speeds (65-70mph).
My gauges, both coolant and tranny temps, didn't show signs of overheating, but when we stopped for fuel I noticed excess coolant had burped out of the reservoir. Other than that little mishap, which only happened once, the combo handled great.
