You can equip one well in the mid-30s.

Ridgeline is a 4 door - 5 Passenger. I specified 2 door. Nor does it get anywhere close to 30 MPG.

Just get a new Ford Ranger when it comes back out next year. The ranchero will never come back, they had the sport track and it went by by also it was a little Explorer pickup. American people want large pickups and SUV' and that's what the automakers are going to keep on making along with their midsize pickups. There is only a small segment of the population that want a car/ truck again and there not about to spend billions to manufacturer them again, some people think the automakers can just remake a vehicle like they had in the past. They have no idea how much it is to retool a assembly plant, and a stamping plant and to meet cafe requirements also your talking a billion or more and the amount they would sell makes it unprofitable to do it. Some of those assembly plants that made these vehicles like the El Camino, and the Rancheros have been torn down.

Maybe the new Bronco will come as a convertible?

Actually, at one time I was considering a "BRAT", but they are even rarer. Surprisingly, that little car - with a tiny engine, only got 22-26 MPG Highway.
