Toonces drives a Ranger . . . . just not very well.
NICE truck. You did a great job on it, and I bet that it's a blast to drive. Thanks for showing it.

They are Scat front seats.

Probably not the Cab Calloway type of Scat, and definitely not manure/ spoor/ poop type of scat...

Maybe Dodge Charger Scat pack type of scat?
