Here is my 95 Ranger "Splash" I got it brand new in 95.![]() Here is the Splash sitting with what was my other ride. An 03 PT Cruiser Limeted Edition ![]() Here is a pic of the PT the last day I had it. ![]() And my replacement to the PT. An 05 Mazda 3 SP23. It is like a "chase car" of the Mazda 3. Only 1500 were made of the hatchback and of the 1,500, only 600 were made with the saddle brown leather interrior like mine. This was the only package that came in this color for that year also.![]() And here is a shot of my primary driver on Forza 2 for Xbox360. Look familiar? This is the one I let the misses drive.

No way!! Are they yours or was it just a coincidence that the 2 were parked in the same place? That is too cool!

Unfortunately no. The closest they've come was a apx. 1/43rd scale plastic toy that was a mail in offer from Procter & Gamble in the early 70's. there were 4 cars in the series, a Mustang, a Cougar, I think a Maverick and the Montego GT. The bodies were molded in yellow and had a grey chassis and they came mounted on a spring loaded launcher that when placed against the rear bumper and triggered pushed the car across the floor. I found one online a couple of years ago, took the body off and painted it to match my car. I keep hoping that Motor Max might make one some day soon. Total production of the real car was only a little over 11,000 units for the two years it was offered(1972 & 1973), so I dont get my hopes up.

I might be buying a lada niva soon, a little smaller than the range rover and apparently much easier to drive, plus my dad is annoyed with be about the Range Rover as i bent up his bumper when it i hit a bank offroading. |

Alot probably got junked, or in some cases they were rare due to factory misconception about certain things (for example my Ranger is one of 4204 known Cerulean/gray/2.3/5 spd single cabs available that year). Certain options may make a common vehicle a rarity. At one point, we had a loaded Ranger XL with alloys, rollup windows, power steering, cd player, and a 3.0L V6 5 spd. I have never seen another with that combo, much less a 1995. |

I just won this truck on e-bay! I need to find somebody to drive me to Staten Island to pick it up now!![]() ![]() My current Splash is just the base model. No fancy features like power windows, AC, etc. This new truck has everything I wanted in my original including the fact that it is a convertible! I have wanted to do that to my truck for years but was never able to find a kit. Now I don't have to!
