Ranger.

I have a 2001 XLT, and its been very reliable. and I get about 20 miles to the gallon with the AC on max and the fan on high. I have driven both my Ranger and the older Frontiers (the old body style). My preference was my Ranger. I have also driven my father-in-law's 2005 Colorado and I still liked my Ranger better. The only downside to my Ranger is that I would have rather gotten the 3.0 instead of the 2.3 (acceleration leaves a little to be desired), But I got a hell of a deal on mine when I bought it so I cant complain too much
