If so, what do you get for fuel mileage? I've had a 4.0L auto, but never a stick. What can I expect. This will be a determining factor on a purchase.

Real world number, not what the sticker says.

Thanks!

I had a 2005 ext cab with that combo and the 4.10 gears and could get almost 22 mpg (in good weather) on the interstate doing 72 mph. Running 265's which might have helped a bit.

Had?

Found one local with 104K asking $8995. They've had it a while and he said he is somewhat flexible on the price. I was thinking of going in in the high 7K range.

Looks to be in great shape, black in color and paint is like new.

My b2 gets around 18 in the winter and 21 in the summer. I am hoping this truck would do the same? What do you think?

driving style is going to be a big factor since you can make a truck like that get 14 mpg if you want to, i could never manage more then 13 mpg in my 89 4x4 with a 2.9 so if your up to 18-21 in your b2 i think its very possible you could achieve that mileage out of the new truck

I average about 16 city and 19 highway in my '02 with a 5 speed. I also have a body lift and 33's with 4.10 gears. I used to be able to get 22mpg with REALLY easy driving on the highway when it was completely stock.
