Yep rising oil prices and high demand. And us Californians have our fun taxes and inferior gas. We are still far cheaper than many countries, so I can't complain too much
Most of the cars I've owned have been 4 banger turbos and they always get overlooked. Zero to 60 and 1/4 mile times are pretty meaningless in this situation. 30-60 or 60-90 times are more relevant. When you are tuned (not sure what other mods you have) and in boost I bet your ranger pulls harder...

23 is right around where it should be. I've had short work trips during the week where I eek out 25mpg going 65mph. With City and Highway combined, I average about 21 to 22 per tank
I was almost about to go ahead and install fronts and rears at home myself and after watching a couple videos on YT was like ugh, I don't want to get stuck and then not be able to use my truck for work the next day. Lol. I've done coilovers on a WRX, but for a truck and actually doing a lift, I...
Thanks for that. I got some weathertech mats for another vehicle a few years ago and they were folded to all hell and several of the edges cut uneven. It was crazy for $200
