Basically in order of contribution to mpg:
1. Driver style (heavy foot or light) (biggest impact)
2. City or highway (stop/ go, do you allow the engine to shut off?)
3. Tire diameter (up to 33") (>33">35") (>35") (rolling resistance, unsprung weight)
4. Accessories -- light bars etc. (towing) (Aerodynamics)
5. Speed (<55), (<65), (<75)( > 75). (Affecting Aerodynamics)
5. Maintenance (change your engine air filter)
6. GOAT Mode (Sport / not sport)
7. Vehicle weight.
2.3L Base 3.73 gear. 36k miles.
21 city, 24 highway.
I try to take back roads that are 55 mph as opposed to freeway when I can. 55 mph seems like the sweet spot for fuel economy.
Oh and if I find a large vehicle to block the wind for me I do a lot better on MPG, but windshield suffers.
