Hello

New to the site. I enjoy doing what others say can't be done.

Current project is an 07 Ford Ranger 4wd that I am trying to get better mileage out of. I have a Scangauge etc. but am looking to improving the aero aspects as I think there is highway mileage to be gained.

At the other end of the objective list is my play car. A glorified Chrysler k-car (daytona). The objective with that one is to pour as much fuel through it as I can in the pursuit of horsepower with a 2.2 (everyone hates these).

So, better mileage with a truck and then performance out of a 20 year old, technically obsolete 8 valve 4 cylinder. Both ends of the spectrum.

If not for these pursuits I would be doing something constructive (like golfing).
