My friend has a 2000 ford ranger. 2.5 L engine with a 5 speed manual, 2 wheel drive.Has a 180,000 miles on it. He gets around 14 mpg with it at best. He told me that he went one tire size bigger than what is stock so the truck would look better. He used to get aroung 22 mpg. I told him that the bigger tires are taking the engine out of the range of its effiecency. He said that the aluminum topper he puts on in the winter lowers his fuel mileage. but I dont know about that
Does anyone have one of these trucks and knows what they get for fuel mileage at 65 mph on the four lane? or at 55 mph on a two lane road. Thanks for the help.
