yea i get 8mpg, and used to drive 160 miles a day.

Thats a 500 dollar a month gas bill.
 
Once we had a 85 Ranger we fixed for one of my workers. This was a 4cyl/5spd 2wd thing on skinny tires and the best he EVER saw in the 4yrs working for us was 23 mpg on a tankfull and he drove relatively easy.
No diesel truck, no 302/AOD in my 82 F150 none of the full size Chevy or Dodge trucks I've ever seen or owned got to 21 mpg unless they were pushed or pulled there.
I can only wish for milage that good!
