Saleen did make Rangers for a short while. More recently they did a version of the Explorer.
Support for the older ones is an issue, though. I have an 85 Saleen Mustang (number 0080 out of 141 made) and getting replacement Saleen parts has been very hard.
I do love the car, though. But, as one of the first reviews said about it, it rides like a loaded gravel truck, but corners like it is on rails. Because of this and a back injury, it has been in storage for a long time, now.

Haha...how'd you know to ask me?

And yes, it is true. And that truck has been for sale for a while now. and it's the same motor that's in my '90, and i had in my 88

they were built in order to allow steve saleen to race.
