Funny, my farmer friend I help with planting and combining every year has an old '89 F-150 with the 300 six and standard tranny and it's the cheapest thing to run on the farm. It gets 18-20 mpg hauling the fuel tank around to service the equipment and go for parts etc. With the overdrive and speed control it's actually easy to drive after you're in high OD cruising.
A cousin of mine had the 300 six in an old Bronco he had and always said it was really good on gas..20 mpg or so.
Sure, when you're working it, it'll burn gas..it's work for it to pull loads that are easy for the big V-8 gas hogs to pull...I know, I gotta truck with a 460 in it...talk about a gas hog!
