In a controlled competition setting, I got 52 mpg out of a Ranger. (1996 2.3L Manual ext-cab) Ken, the owner, then went and got 57 over the same route. He's averaging 35 in it over the last 25,000 miles.
Pulse and Glide works well, as well as keeping the speed low. When you go too fast, aerodynamics are killer, as well as the high rpm.
