Whats your average mpg?

[fastpakr]

My gas gauge is broken, but usually I get around 580 to the tank. So I am guessing that is around 34 MPG... Only things done are pnp head removed the nerf football looking thing from the intake and normal maintenance. Most of my driving is done on the interstate around 70 mph. Also forgot that my A/C doesn't have the belt on it, have the one for power steering w/o A/C.

What? I just watch my trip and reset it when I fill up. So around 550 I fill up and it usually takes about 17 gallons give or take a quarter gallon.

I'd be very carefully checking the odometer reading if that's the case.

Why is that?

Why is that?

Because you claim to get 34 MPG with your Ranger.

this is quite possible as the xcab's have a 21.5 gallon fuel tank... like mine
has..
i figure i get low 20's mpg average with about 25 as a max on the highway in summer under 65mph.. with a tailwind .. etc etc

How do you guys get such good gas mileage? Have you guys done anything to your trucks to boost your mpg? What can I do? Everything on my truck is stock.

I have a 1998 reg. cab 2wd. 2.5l automatic. I only get about 18 or 19 mpgs in the city, but I don't drive it like a maniac either... What can I do to improve my mileage?

I usually get around 19-22 driving mostly highway with my 94 2.3 with a 5-speed but im also 17 and tend to have a heavy foot sometimes. just replaced the O2 sensor and changed my exhaust though so mabey that will help a little.
