Thanks for the advice. I just looked at the fuel log on your toyota...looks like you're doing 35 mpg in mixed driving, and you nearly hit 40 with mostly highway. I plan on doing about 95% highway--lots of weekend road trips, and I always ride my bike in town. I can't remember the last time I drove my car in town. Anyway, with all highway, I think I can top 40 in an I4 compact truck.

If this Ranger has no mechanical problems and I can snag it for under $2500, I'll let you know how it goes.
