Just bought a 2007 Ranger 4 banger auto. My first trip showed 25mpg @ 70+mph. If a recent tune w/filters has been done with no change,I'd look to the 02 sensor.

15 MPG with a 2.3/5 spd Supercab?????? Well Duhhhh......of course it's supposed to get more.:rolleyes:
Due to the fact that you asked if a 4 banger should get more than 15 mpg, I have to assume that you need to do all the maintenance services that you probably neglected.

I feel your pain buddy....I really do Im getting about 14 mpg. I'm already noticing after a fuel injection clean I put in yesterday that my fuel gauge is not going down quite as fast. also replace your fuel filter(I need to do this). If you got the cash do do so than get the full tuneup

I've got a 2008 supercab with 2.3L and 5 speed. Just got back from a 2000 mile trip. Mostly freeway diving and averaged 27 MPG. The milage is about 8,000. When I first bought the truck last November, I was getting 22 MPG. Gotta love these Rangers.
