Lets take the 2.3L Ford Ranger for example since it's known to get the best mileage out of any sized pickup in the US. If one truck was just a standard cab and the other was a king cab, would the king cab do worse on gas since there's more room in the cab? I mean, the extra space really wouldn't add any pull or weight to the engine, right?Is there a difference in gas mileage between standard cab trucks and king cab trucks?
For the Ranger, the EPA fuel economy rating stays the same.
In real driving the supercab will be a little worse than the standard cab with a 6ft bed.
Overall, the Supercab Ranger is a more than a foot longer than the standard cab. That extra metal adds about 400lbs and that will have some impact on economy.Is there a difference in gas mileage between standard cab trucks and king cab trucks?
More weight more gas .....................
