Nice ride. Hopefully no problems this time around. What type of mileage are you getting compared to the ranger?

It's only rated at 24mpg on the highway, so that's not all that bad. I'm surprised it's that low though, especially requiring premium fuel.

... or a bed ...
If I needed a truck, I would still have a truck. I have no use for a truck right now, I have nothing to tow/haul, I just drive, a LOT - on the highway. The heaviest thing I might ever carry with me is a server or two, other than that, a laptop. Whenever I get done with school and get me a "real" job, get some new toys, I'll probably look for an older ranger/f150 that I will use ONLY for hauling stuff.
