Looks oddly familiar!!!




- 40-50 is the norm for this truck( Isuzu Pup/s-10 and D50/Mighty Max) with the 2.3l turbo diesel motor. My '83 2x4 ranger got 18mpg flogging the dog( drive like it is an autocross track day, hard not to do when you're a kid and you enjoy twisty roads), With an '87 2.9 V6 and matching A4OD trans ( transplant with certified CARB approval)
- my Father-in-law's Isuzu Diesel Pup was at 900k mi as of 2008 @35-45mpg (depending on weather and loading, Lake County Oregon is famious for leaving 2' of snow on the road before droping the blade on a plow), it was ~300k past due needing a full rebuild bumper to bumper 1ga of gear oil for the differentials per tank of fuel. (Amazing how fast his mileage would add up on vehicles especially when it's a hundred miles one way to the grocery store he got about 3-4 round trips per tank). These little trucks were amazing agile and effective.
