my 93 Nissan D21 4x4 5speed with a 2.4L with 67K got like 11mpg's or less.....and i did alot of work to it including timing chain.....
Prolly because its 4WD with a 4cyl. Thats like having a 3.9 V6 with 4WD in our trucks. I'm pretty sure the POS-10 with the monstorous 2.2 and auto gets around 28 if I keep my foot out of it.

i read an article somewhere on the web about a group of guys went on a road trip with there full size trucks and they where trying to get the best fuel mileage they could. there was a first gen truck that was able to get 27.71MPG. if i can find the article again i will post it. it was interesting to see the results.
i know they are diesel truck but a lot of the same things apply.
Besides driving slow, almost everyone admitted to driving "to win it," which meant no quick accelerating and coasting down hills
So what did we learn? First and foremost, we learned that slowing down really does help, as does driving like a ninny. Technology seems to help too because the newer trucks got really good numbers. Emissions does hurt mileage considerably-the Jeep that should have gotten about 30 mpg ended up only getting 23. Finally, the old mechanical trucks still can keep up, and with an overdrive transmission and lockup converter in Rust Bucket, we think it could have won
