Someone's Comment about the Texas Edition trucks gave me an idea: Let's find the regional special editions and list what you get with them. I only know of three

TEXAS EDITION: (Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado/GMC Sierra, Ram 1500, Toyota Tacoma and Tundra) Badges, chrome Rim/Bumper Package, Towing Package

BLUEBONNET SPECIAL: (Ford Mustangs from 1965-197?, could only be ordered and sold through Ford's Dallas District Sales Office) Special Baby-Blue Paint Color, Air-Conditioning, maybe more?

HIGH COUNTRY SPECIAL: (Ford Mustangs from 1965-197?, could only be ordered and sold through Ford's Denver District Sales Office) Special Brown Paint Color, Factory Carb tuning for high-altitude driving, maybe an upsized heater core?

I know there are a bunch more out there, so let's go find them and put them in here.

Well, I already messed up. The Bluebonnet Special was one-year limited run in 1967. This link for forum info: http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums…

Twister Special, politically incorrect for Kansas Ford dealers in 1970 on either the Mustang or Torino. The most desired at the 429 SCJ cars. It was nothing more than a graphics package but it certainly helped fill in all that empty space.

Also the Sidewinder, available in Iowa and Nebraska for 1970. More neat graphics, this time a symbol more fitting for the Mustang.
