A slightly older F150 would fit the bill. Lots of those are around w/ 4.9(straight 6 300) 5 sp. manual Mazda transmissions, and regular cab long box. Mine is one such creature, 2wd, and I'm getting about 16-18 MPG at the moment. I wish I had 4wd, and my next truck will, but for a 2wd it does more work than most other 4x4 3/4 ton trucks around.
