I get 17 mpg on average. My van sucks.

I get around 22-23 if I'm easy on it, or about 15-18 if Im on it alot...

1990 s-10 extended cab, auto (700r :help: )

got bad news for ya on the 4.6 in the ranger.....or good news depending on how crafty you are...the 4.6 is wider than a 5.0 or even a 5.8...raised deck height due to the overhead cam setup makes it wider than a big block by 4 inches....also unless you are getting all the wiring and computer,sensors and crap that go with it carb. manifolds aint cheap for the mod motor. plus everybody knows PUSHRODS RULE!!!!!!!

about 15.5mpg with the '01 JGC Limited, 4.7L V8 automatic with QuadraDrive (full time AWD)

I get about 8 or 10mpg on 93 octane with the car . Up to about 15 or so with OD engaged on the highway. Less than 8 if I'm standing on the loud-pedal.
about <1 minute of N2o per bottle at WOT with a bottle heater, before that's depleted.
car has a 20 gallon gas tank. 10# bottle

15 on the highway isn't bad at all for what the car is.

i'd hope for somewhere betweeen 20 and 30

I agree about the 4.6 swap, not fitting at all unless you plan on losing air conditioning, customizing the grill for the radiator since the modular is a longer motor, possibly altering steering linkage and chassis mounts as well. 5.0L is a pretty natural swap, but past that you'll have a lot of clearance issues. The modular engines are great for all around driveability and are very reliable, and their original intent was to improve gas mileage, power/liter, and smoothness by reducing internal friction and weight, the sad thing is that increasing emissions requirements have limited the full potential of the engines in power and economy. Parts are too expensive for them too. 5.0L > 4.6L, especially if you're adding performance goodies.

Both my SC2 and Focus get around 35-38 MPG on the freeway.
