I was sitting at a stop light today and as usual was checking out any other Explorers stopped their also. Right next to me I noticed a 95-95 model XLT. (Judging by the fact that it had XLT on the lift gate and brake lights just like mine.)
The thing I'm wondering about is the fact that it had colored side molding and fender flares! From the side molding on the bottom of the door down was tan colored, textured plastic. The fender flares where also tan and the rear ones went all the way back to the bumper like they do on EB's. The bumper did not have the plastic on the center of it like the EB's do though.
It looked like the new sport package option that has the fender flares and all, but it was not a new Explorer. That option was not available in 95-97 to my knowledge. I have also tried to order factory fender flares and they said they only came on the Eddie Bauer model.
What was it? I must know because now I want the same thing.
