MPG From an 88?

Anyone know what mileage I can get from an 88 Ranger reg cab with a 2.9L 5-speed, no A/C, 2WD?

my 87 2.9 4x4 supercab get about 22mpg backroads. so u could prob expect a bit better

Highway is like 22 or more.

I would expect 24-26 out of that truck (doing 60).

Well, that's a lot better than my Explorer (16mpg). I had thought of buying a car to drive back and forth to work, but I don't think it would be cost-effective. Blow $2000 on a car that gets 25mpg? I think I'll get this Ranger going this Spring and drive it (needs a core support-bent).
