What kind of MPG do you single cab 2wd 4 banger ranger owners get?
Some days, not all, I drive my truck for work. I usually drive 60 miles round trip. The mileage my ranger gets is terrible. I've been thinking about picking up a base model reg cab ranger to DD and keep the mileage down on the ranger. And eventually it'll pay for itself in gas savings.
Other days, when I need to tow the trailer I drive an 01 cummins for work. Not cheap to drive lol. And it's not mine, so it isn't at my disposal whenever I want. A little beater ranger would make a nice work/dgaf what happens to it truck.
Just curious on what kind of MPG's you guys get?
Thanks.

I have a new Duratec 2.3L.I recently went on a trip to where I'm from.Before the return trip I topped the tank off.It took 7.2 gallons to drive 199 miles,so that's 27 mpg.I drove 75 to 85 MPH for about ninety minutes then climbed mountain after mountain.I think if I hypermilled a little and went the speed limit,I could get 29-30MPG(on that particular trip).

I like my lil ranger just fine as is. If I wanted a bigger truck, I'd buy one. I don't want a bigger truck. I don't want it lifted. I don't want over-sized tires. I'm perfectly happy with the stock height, as it's easy for me to get in and out of. I don't want to squeeze into a little sh11box car, and don't want to have to climb into a big truck, both are hard on my back. My lil Ranger is perfect for me.

I am curious. Precisely what was your intention, if it was not to offend?

Looks like some pretty good numbers. Like others have said, I can't stand small cars. The g6 is almost a midsize car, pretty big inside for what it is, and still bugs me. I couldn't imagine driving a little civic or some other econocrap car. A single cab ranger is about as small as I would go. lol

I'll agree that my single cab has no room to store anything anywhere but I'm a pretty good sized guy and I used to drive from Nashville, TN to New Orleans, LA and from Nashville, TN to Houston, TX atleast once a week for awhile and I was always comfortable. It sucked not having cruise control though. My wife, at one point, had a Toyota Corolla and THAT was a very small, uncomfortable car to drive !
