New from IN!

Hi everone, I am Kyle from Northern Indiana. I have driven a big diesel truck ever since I could drive. I have a truck that I go to truck pulls and drag races with that is also street legal. With the fuel prices going up I had to get something other than a diesel. I get 19-21 with my cummins but my price per gallon is out of control.

I just bought a 94 Ford Ranger 5 spd 2wd 4.0 V6 that I have been getting 20-21 and I am lookin for anyway possible to improve mpg.
