Ranger
14k to 22k
21 mpg
F150
17k to 37k
14 mpg
Sport Trac
25k to 40k
14 mpg
That 14 for the F-150 must be a mix of city/highway. My F-150 can get about 18 mpg on the highway, and about 12 in town. Would put the Ranger with about a 3.0 and the Sport Trac with a 4.6. Very nice, fair compairison. Also keep in mind that the $17k F-150 has the same power and towing abilities as a $22k Ranger, only it has more room and is safer.
