S-10 blazer vs. ford ranger ext cab

i think i am going to get rid of my old burb, because i have to have something better on gas than my bronco. the S-10 blazer and ranger are my options. the blazer has a 4.3 and the ranger has a 2.9 both are 4X4. dont know and really dont care about different options(pw,pl etc). i need to know which one gets better gas mileage,how easy\hard it is to fix them when they break,etc. thanks

As far as mileage I always look on autotrader.com for the year and model and it gives an idea.

My 91 Blazer Sport with 4.3L auto 4wd, lifted with Mud Terrian tires gets 21mpg... I've done a ton of work on s10s... super easy to work on and modify IMO. What year is it?
