How on earth did anyone manage to get 30 MPG out of a V-6 Ranger? I couldn't ever break the 20 MPG mark with mine...I hit it once or twice with some very careful driving, but its average was closer to 9 in the city (Where I do 99% of my driving) and 16 on the highway.
I never got 30 mpg, but I consistently got 25 mpg on the highway and 21 around town in my old 1999 six cylinder 4WD extended cab Ranger without trying too hard. In fact, with the commercial grade aluminum topper, plywood bedliner, and all the tools and camping gear I always carried around then, the truck was typically carrying an extra 900 pounds additional weight, besides me.
