Just take a complete frame/running gear, slap a Ford emblem on it, put a drivers seat, and run your test for a "stripped Ranger".Sidebar....
I wonder if it's possible - just as a science experiment to strip the ranger down to reduce as much weight as possible, lower it a little, put on some super efficient tires and wheels, drive highway speeds (55 to 65) for a tank and see what the maximum possible achievable MPG really is. Best case conditions all of the way around. Then we can track how far off of perfection we all are.
Maybe perfect is really only 28 MPG and getting 21 with a fully loaded truck and off road tires and towing isn't that bad.
Or Maybe 42.2 is perfect. We don't really know.
Why Does This Matter ??????? What is the hourly obsession with the mpg ??????? I don't get it .....
It's a truck, and if you did any homework on the Ranger, you knew it wasn't going to get 275.9484636 mpg, and that it had a small gas tank.
WHY ????? Someone please "splain me"
