My 95 short bed auto averaged 18-19 mpg the entire 8 years I drove it- ( had 82 K when bought it- 96 K when I sold it= sold it last summer but shouldn't have- Just used it to haul bicycle around mostly/ Came close to 20 mpg a couple times
wow, you only put 14k miles on it in 8 years? I bought my 99 Dakota back on 6/1 of this year, and already have more than 14k miles on it since I got it.... and that's even with me and the wife switching off (we have 4 vehicles among us, so 2 are sitting at any given time) AND with the 99 sitting 2 weeks, while I collected parts and did the repairs from Bambi's banzai suicide jaunt out in front of me on a country road, a whole 10 days after I bought it....
