block the grill, cover or aerocap the bed, put the mud flaps on the front of the wheels, lower it, or maybe a belly pan? Mine is a 4x4, with the 4.0L, and an auto. It's lifted, with mud tires, burns oil like crazy, and i've tip-toed at 20 all highway. mostly in the 17~19 range. with a lower, lighter truck, you can definitely do better then me. I'd say 25-30mpg all highway in stock form, just driving normal.
Oh if you need any Ranger help, ask me, I tend to know stuff.
