Whill's got it. I only did the compiled stats that he did in this thread.

As much as I like these stats, it's hard for me to picture them in a game without a visual to accompany them. For those who feel the same, I propose that we post images that we think fit with the descriptions Ray originally provided. Here's my thoughts on the Earth equivalents on the list.Corellian Speeders' Easyride - Ford Crown Victoria or a Lincoln Towncar.
Gervarian SpeciesMover - Volkswagen Beetle
Xergo Repulsortruck - Full-Size Pickup (Chevy, Ford or Dodge, take your pick).
Verzer Screacher - Mustang / Camaro
Draven "Trip" - Military "Deuce-and-a-Half"
Xergo Van - Full-Size Panel Van
Corely FamilyVan - Full-Size Passenger Van
Corely MassHauler 3000 - Straight-Truck (Cargo Truck with a fixed trailer, not a semi)
Corely RoadMaster - Harley-Davidson
CSA Mealmaster - Basic taco truck
Republic / Imperial Citizen - Basic Sedan (Camry, Impala, Accord, etc)
Hot Chub "Chubmobile" - The Oscar-Meyer Weiner crossed with a Taco Truck
Miniature Speeder - Mini Cooper
Corellian Gunrunner - Luxury Sedan
Republic Manufacturing GPMV - Classic Military Jeep
TaggeCo Golf Cart - Duh
Xergo OUV - HMMWV
SoroSuub Blue Verdock Bus - Passenger Bus, ala Greyhound
Please post any images you think fit, as well as any alternate suggestions as to the general equivalents I posted above.

The screacher seems more to me like a Porsche Boxter or S2000 given that it is a two-seater, and turns like it is on rails... although the appeal to a younger market does reak of pony car qualities.
Perhaps the conceptual medium between Porsche and Camaro is a Corvette.
As for the Gunrunner, I imagine something like a Charger SRT (or possibly even Hellcat) or a Mercedes AMG sedan or BMW M5, though the M5 would have pretty good handling in its class. |

Feel free to make a PDF with corrections. Thank you for doing so.
As for artwork, I'm an author (professionally published now) and not an artist, so, you'll have to find someone else to do that. Sorry.

These are pretty spot-on with what I was aiming at. Good catch! Something familiar enough that people can imagine it quickly. |

Hey! Glad to see you back, Ray! |
I come and go. Forums and chatting are harder for me these days due to mental health, but I'm writing professionally now, and am so very glad to see these being used all these years later.
I also got a Star Wars D6 RPG going on now, so might get some new ideas. |

| Let's face it, only one or two of them would do you a bit of good in Coruscant - they just don't have the range of altitude needed to be useful. Maybe we (I'm willing to help) work on a few Coruscant-style speeders with a 1km+ performance ceiling. |

Funny you found this one. I was thinking your Scout Speeder from the Adventurer’s Journal page was a good fit for the Xergo OUV.
