Mileage dropped, should I be concerned?
My gas mileage had been staying pretty steady at around 17-19 MPG, but the last month or two it is 14 not matter what. I am getting right at 14 no matter if I drive highway or city and with or without heat. If anything, it is worse on the highway.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Should I get it checked out? It actually started right around when I replaced the stock gas cap, certainly that is just a coincidence though. Thanks.

What was wrong with the stock gas cap? You might be getting ready for a check engine light to come on. That's usually a sign that the computer might be on to a problem.

Perhaps a silly question, but have you checked your tire pressure? I got lax and discovered mine were down to 20psi (even though they didn't look it) and once I put them back up to 28psi it's like a new Jeep!
