It has gotten to the point that if you want the truly hot MPG setup of diesel, manual transmission, 2wd, you have to buy a 3/4 ton truck.
Hot rodders know how to convert automatic cars and truck to manuals. The Tremec T-56 family is one of the best manuals ever built.
Believe it or not GM built a Suburban that was good for 30 MPG. 6.2 NA diesel, 5-speed manual, 4x2, 2.73:1 gearing. Obviously not real quick but it got the big MPG.
