My 96 300/E4OB regular cab short bed 2WD got 19 highway and 14 city with 3.08 gears. When I swapped to 3.73s it went to 16 everywhere. The manual tranny has less of an overdrive so MPG should be similar.
Obviously, YMMV

Mine gets about 15-16 mpg. I can't break it down to highway and city driving because I do a combination of both. I do have a little bit larger tires than stock and 3.08 gears.

I've got 3.55 gears (stock size tires) and the heavy duty 5-speed, and I get 13 around town. On the highway, I can get around 18 if I don't go over 65mph. I cruise a little faster than that though, and my mileage plummets to around 15.
The best MPG I ever got? While following my dad (who was towing), not driving any faster than 55-60mph, empty, I managed 21mpg.
