[rcmorr09]

Hmm i just bought this truck and am loving it, but i would like to know how many miles to the gallon it gets city/highway. I have a 4.0L v6 and its auto, also the dealer said it had about 200hp is this true? thanx for your help. btw its 2wd.

I too have recently purchased an identical Ranger. I did some checking and the 4.0 gets 160 hp @ 4200 rpm, and 225 ft/lbs of torque @ 2750 rpm.

I have driven about 11000 miles in the last 4 months and the mileage was as follows: in the cold weather of Wisconsin in winter, the truck got about 16 to 17 mpg, mostly highway driving. As the temps have warmed up, the mileage has increased to a high of 19 mpg. I hope to see in the 20's as temps continue to increase. I have tried babying the truck to increase mileage, but it seems to get just as good when I beat on it as it does when driven mildly.

I have the same truck as you do, I get 22 MPG at just about any speed, I suspect you have a problem with your fuel system if you only get 16 MPG, what is your rear end gear ratio and what rpm's you running at 60 mph????

Same Truck here, 22 MPG with no Problem, what is your rear end gear ratio, what rpm at 60 mph>>>>
