Fuel mileage for 94-up Ranger ?s

Please state engine size, 4x4, or 2x4, city, highway, or both, and how many miles you have.
Thanks Stampede

1994 2.3 litre 2x4 124k miles

I get 19.x mpg - never 18 and never 20 :P

that makes exactly 240 a tank and I drive approx 190 miles of that on 'city-interstate' (you know.. from 70mph to stopped to 70mph again on I-35 in south Oklahoma City) and about 50 in town

I get a combined 18.3 mpg. I have the 4.0l v6, 5 spd auto in a 2000 Xlt regular cab. This includes winter mpg at 17.1 and summer mpg at 19.0. The last tank full was 16.4. We had a winter storm, so I used the 4x4 quite a bit. I have 50,700 miles on my truck.

94 2wd Supercab XLT base model drivetrain (2.3 and stick shifter...) gets about 24 mpg's hwy doing 80 (that's on my recent trip to Louisiana) on I-10 and probably about 20+ city when I am not mashing away on the pedal.

P.S. Engine is going on 232,500 miles.

1995 2wd 5speed 2.3L
360 to 370 miles per tank. I believe this equates to about 24 on the highway.

Stampede, what engine does your F150 have? Auto or stick? 15.5 doesn't sound to bad.

My '95 4x2 regular cab 2.3L 5 sp manual gets 27-28 hwy mpg in winter and 28-30 hwy mpg in summer. It has 185K mi. I use only mobil1 oil. My '03 4x4 ext cab, 5 sp manual 4.0L with 2k miles gets 19 - 20 hwy mpg at 70 mph. It has 4.10 gears so I don't go any faster than 70.

In rebuttal to my previous post:

I also have a camper shell on there too, so that could be bringing it down.

Also my mileage seems higher with the newer plugs, and new air/fuel filters.

I will post my next tank in a couple of days.

1996 Ford Ranger XLT : L4 2.3L 4-cyl
I get about 19-22mpg in the city, all depending on weather and when I shift. And about 24-28mpg on the highway, if I travel at 65mph and no higher than 75mph. Most of my driving is done around the back roads of moore,OK & OKC,OK.
