Neighbor has a newer Ranger with the v-6 and auto, makes around 16 to 18 mpg... about the same as Dad does with his F-150 with the 3-valve 5.4 - what's the point of the smaller pickup???
On the other hand, I had a 90 Ranger club cab 4x4 with the 2.9 v-6 and a 5-speed that would make 23 mpg quite often. Worst I ever got was a touch over 19...
Why do people believe they need 300 horsepower and a 5 second 0-60 time in their pickup, or car, or SUV?
My del Sol had a 1.5 liter 4-banger and would 0-60 in about 15 seconds, easily went 80mph on the freeway, hauled all I needed in the trunk, etc. with 42 mpg average over 20,000 miles that I owned it. Unfortunately it only had 2 seats so needed to be sold when the little one came, but the Civic coupe or sedan will do almost as good for mileage while hauling up to 5 people (4 comfortably).
Faster, faster, mine's bigger than yours, etc. are the main problems here.
