Fuel Economy

[DakotaGuy]

Gas will soon be $4.00-5.00+ everywhere a gallon with the war that just started. If you have any sort of a gas guzzler you're thinking of selling might want to get it sold quickly. I remember what happened after oil (and therefore gas) went sky high in 2008.

Life long Steelers fan myself! Where I live I’m actually closer to Pittsburgh than Cleveland.

Good man. Good man.

4.10?

Two things... my 2005 was a 4:10 FX4 from the factory. I did a quick look at all the paper work from the purchase, and it is not listed anywhere...(unlike the 2005 where it's listed in the Ranger brochure). So I quickly Googled diff ratios available on 2019 Rangers... 3.73 and 4.10 came up. Now I may have misread it... been known to happen.

If it's not a 4.10, then the 3.73... and consider my post amended. Bottom line, my MPG sucks.

Gotcha. I have a 4x2 xlt factory tires a/s and i get an average of 18 mpg. Emty pickup, no tools, or boxes, jacks etc.

Just finished hand calculating my fuel economy from my trip last week. 2,300 miles and averaged just below 21mpg's. Best tank was 24.6 and worst 19.2. Overall, pretty pleased with the results, especially since I wasn't driving it for economy.

Gripes, gas went up anoth 10 cents a gallon overnight . Now up to $4.499/gal for regular in our part of central PA.

EDITED to add. I just checked Gas Buddy app on my phone and I see closer to town regular is $4.55/gal for regular. Premium $5.39/gal.

Are they comfortable for 6'0" person? I was looking at CT125 the other day.



Yeah if it came with a switch for 87 I would absolutely get it. I paid $3.80 the other day for 91, no 93 around here.

I'm 6'2 240lbs and my grom was plenty comfy to bomb around on, all I had done to mine was a full exhaust and some airbox mods and it would get me along at 60mph on a flat road.

I passed the rural station this morning at $1.98/L.

Kept going 4 miles into town and it was $1.87/L

Another 2 miles to the Native Reserve, which I paid $1.77/L or ~$6.70/gallon.

I filled up with ~65L @ $109.

Now at 7800 miles I seem to have picked up 1-2 mpg?? Averaging 21.7 according to computer last 600 miles. Will need to monitor and hand calc.

Not sure if it’s Summer blend stuff but I’m not driving any different and pretty much same route daily. I didn’t really buy a truck expecting good mpg just enjoy keeping track. Nothing beats my 2015 Ram Eco I had. I could get 26 to 27 out of that truck.

I am averaging 12.6 km per liter for my 2.2 diesel. So this works out to about 29.6 mpg. Happy with having the diesel.

That would probably be a wash here in the states. Diesel is 20% more expensive than regular gas right now.

Quite true, here I am paying $5.70 per gallon of diesel though. So a fill up is costly at a $120.00.

Winter gas and summer gas is real.

It obviously depends where you live, but if it snows where you are, you probably get winter gas.

I've read that it switches over in May, so your timeline makes sense.

I almost always carry a camper except when I take it off to haul stuff. Average over the past 10K miles has been 17. Having said that, I drive pretty slowly.

Mileage goes in the toilet once you get much past 60, particularly in wind. Drove 5500 miles from OR to IL and back during the winter and the windy states (WY, NE, KS) were killing me. Averaged only 15 on that trip. Without the camper and unloaded (driving faster), I get low 20s.
