    Cool Lets see your FUEL EFFICIENT Trucks

    Here is my '93 Mazda B2200 4 cylinder 5 speed. Gets 28 mpg on the highway and 25 around here in the mountains of PA. The best part is that I can still fit 2 trikes in back and still get better gas mileage than the V8s

    Were repainting the rims sometime next week

    If you want fuel efficiency.. try this on for size

    1700 mpg !

    ( That's 10 cents of electricity per full charge.. and gas at 1 $ per Liter ! )

    Will haul me.. with a 12 pack of beer in a backpack.. tools.. and chargers. Up ANY paved hill you can find anywhere at 40 km/h for 30 to 40 kms without pedaling what so ever.

    My street has just a little incline to it. Sometimes I forget to use the hand brake and it rolls downhill. Good thing the parts truck was sitting there. I got all of that trash out of the back of the parts pickup. The parts pickup was a non-running 93 f-150 I bought to fix my wrecked 95 f-150. How come some people use non-running pickups for big trash cans?

    i got a s10 with 2.2L engine and i get low 20's mpg.

    i think it sucks in gas efficiency for a four banger.

    Heres the beaut I haul garage with at work.

    14 km to the dump, takes an 1/8 of a tank for a round trip. I think it burns about the same amount of oil too.

    Hmmm, what year is it? A friend of mine had a 98 s10 extended cab 2wd 5 speed 2.2 and he got 25+ out of his. Is yours a standard? 4wd? If not try new plugs, wires, rotor and cap.

    I actually just bought an s10 last week. Its a 93, 2.8 liter v6, 2wd, 5 speed. Its small and absolutely gutless compared to my Blazer with the 5.7 liter 350 TBI, but it gets double the milage, even with a few converter mods Still a nice little truck though, and I'm counting on it to get me to trikefest and back, lol. Nice trucks everyone!
