Quickie: Ford Ranger SPLASH

If you were sad to read that Toyota was killing the X-Runner and you lament the loss of the Chevy S-10 and Colorado Xtreme editions, you’re forced into the used market.  If your’e interested in those two, you might love this Ranger Splash.

Under the bright blue with 90s teeny-bopper graphics is a V6 manual Ranger, which is generally good.  Unfortunately, there’s also some rust under there.

The combo of bright blue and cheesy Splash graphics makes for a very 90s package.

The stepside Ranger looked pretty cool, but did sacrifice a bit of cargo space.

Here’s a better shot of the awesome Splash graphics.

Plain ranger interior is functional.

Doh!
