my 4.0 gets about 200 miles out of a tank. i was using a full can of sea foam in the gas and got around 230 almost every time even though theres nothing on the can that says it helps with gas millage. but i thought mine was way low too. i got the 16 gallon tank i believe. but i think them 35s are killing your gas millage.

187 to a tank is insane. I was flippin out at 250 and I drive in LA traffic.
You definately have problems, but it can be alot of diffrent things. without more info, I'd say get a professional injector cleaning, change your fuel filter, change your oil, plugs and wires, air filter,
I've seen some complaints about the 3.0 getting stuck in timing retard mode.
I would also look into your trucks health, drive a new ranger, compare it to yours and see if some things seem a little too diffrent given mileage and age.

I usually get around 285-300 on a tank. Most of the time, I fill back up when the needle is about 1/2 between 1/4 and empty, so it usually takes uhh 14 gal. So figuring on the low side, I am getting about 20mpg. My speedo is off anywhere from 1-2 mph and I'm running 32's w/4.10's. My mpg's might actually be a little higher if my speedo was acurate.
