I drove two of them, for years - one without the turbo, and one with. Both 198 cubic inch Nissan diesels. Both were loaded down pretty heavy with tools all the time and were used as service vehicles. As I recall, the best tank of fuel I ever verified was around 25 MPG - but I never got to check one empty cruising down a flat highway. They handled so badly, not sure I would have wanted to. Around the same vintage, Jeep had a Perkins diesel available, but I never got to drive one. I know of a few Chevy K5 Blazers with Cummins 236 c.i. turbo diesels (3.9 liter) that get a best of around 28 MPG. I still have a rusted out Isuzu Trooper with a 2.2 turbo Isuzu diesel and that can get a best of around 32 MPG on a flat highway. I also have many 6.2 diesel Blazers and the best mileage I ever saw was 23 MPG.
