It's interesting that people are comparing it to a late '90s F150 as though that were smaller than the other half ton offerings or even the 3/4 ton and above. It wasn't. In fact you could buy a 7 lug version of it called a F250.
Cause the F150 became a soccer mom truck after that.

19 mpg is all my old style Ford Ranger did highway. 3.0 V-6 with 5sp manual. Cousin had a old style Ranger with the 4 cylinder that did around 28mpg highway.

I found it interesting that the headline said MPG at 70mph but the only time I heard them mention how fast they actually drove they said 80mph. That was at stop number two just before they announce the 17.6 mpg. That would cause about a 20% drop in fuel economy. Also, I would really like to know what speed the EPA tests at and whether they use pure gasoline or the ethanol blend that we have to use in real life. Those two things could easily account for the rest of the difference.
