Don't think so. I'm pretty sure it's 04+ as well.

it was 04+

Here is a website that list's the colour options available year to year, it seems to be pretty accurate.

For some reason, I always thought lazlers truck is an 03 DSG edge, I'm probably wrong.

2003 Ford Ranger Colors Available

I just used 03 as an example but you can pick from year to year.

Come to think of it, I don't think I have ever seen a Dark highland green ranger.

well i knew it wasnt "DSG" because it is lighter than my buddys 04 that is actually DSG but i had no idea that they were only 04+....well is there any gray 01-03?....cause that is my favorite front end and i was thinkinig about doing a swap on my truck and since i work at a body shop i could have it painted for cost of materials...and i was thinking that a grey front end like that would look sexy...

i knew he did something. i just wasn't sure what.

matt, i thought it was a different shade. there was a shade that was offered in 98 or 99 that was similar to yours but a little softer.

It was a goldish color. I forget the correct name, but it was also on my 97 I had.
