Dans le livre il s'agissait d'une Toyota (si je me souviens bien)

il y'a une chose que j'ai trouvé bizzare dans le film c'est que quand la voiture tombe dans l'arbre les phares fonctionent toujours dont le gauche qui percute une branche. et aussi quand le tyranausaure retourne la voiture sur le toit on voit de la boue rentrait dans la voiture alors qu'avant le sol n'est pas aussi boueux

j'ai l'impression que la voiture peut devier a tout moment car elle n'est tenu par aucun cable

aussi avant que le tyranausaure avale la chevre et qu'un morceau atterisse sur le toit de la ford ,j'ai remarqué qu'il pleut et que les essuies glaces ne fonctionnent pas

:hello: 1993 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer. You can tell it is an Eddie Bauer edition car because of bumper and grill diferences from the XLT and XLS models. And running boards were only availible on XLT and Eddie Bauer models and the XLT model had a a smaller bumper. And for those of you who do not know what I am talking about, Ford Explorers ( and not just Explorers but F series pickups, Escapes, Expeditions and other trucks and SUVs) have models. XLS is the third class or base model, XLT is the second class model which has all the XLS features and more and before the 1994 introduction of the Limited luxury model, the fancy model was the Eddie Bauer signiture series cars. With interiors designed by or taken from the interior designer, Eddie Bauer, it was the luxury or fancy edition which had XLS and XLT features including many of its own and many options to choose from too. Ford Explorer replaced the aged Ford Bronco and Bronco II.

When the T-Rex is about to come out onto the road it shows a close-up of the back of the Explorer next to the fence and you can read out "Explorer XLT."

I have to admit, if I ever bought a first-generation Explorer, I'd be very tempted to put that plexiglass roof on.

Does this really deserve 4 stars? I mean, it was used only in the tour and the t-rex scene.

antp BE

2006-10-29 00:08

The scenes with the cars are somewhat long, the car is really well seen and well featured in the movie. I think that its role is important enough to justify 4 stars.

By the way, Gliffhanger, if you have the DVD of a film and you want to replace the pictures, feel free to use a still from another moment in the film if you feel it gives a better view of the vehicle.

2007-01-02 16:52

These cars were pretty heavily customized, as well as the "driverless" feature and the plexiglass roofs they also had touch-screen computer monitors inside as an interactive information feature for the Tour.

In the novel the Tour cars were actually written as Toyota Land Cruisers, but, probably due to product placement, the studio decided to use Ford Explorers, which serve the film just as well. Definetely 4 star vehicles, since they feature in the unforgettable T-Rex attack scene. I always liked the paint jobs on these, when I was a kid I loved this film and I painted some of my die-cast toy cars with the same livery as these so they'd look like Jurassic Park cars.

Neptune US

2007-01-02 16:56

They also used the Ford Explorers’ because Steven Spielberg owned one at the time of the movies’ filming and he liked the vehicle. Go figure…

2007-01-02 17:05

Now I hear he's a Lexus fan, and drives an LX470 (a rebadged Toyota Land Cruiser), and that's why there was a futuristic Lexus in Minority Report. Mind you if I had his money (the man's a billionaire), I'd have something a little more exquisite, but then maybe he does have some other nice cars in his garage.

It was alright, the only thing is it had a bit of the rear of the car in front in it, which was slightly blurry because it was just moving past the camera.

Just a little tid bit. I noticed somebody above mentioned that the Explorers are Eddie Bauer edition models. They are not. If you look closely at the picture showing the rear hatch you can see the badge that says XLT directly below the "Explorer" nameplate. It is also much clearer in the movie.

It does seem to have a Eddie Bauer grille. I believe this is why he was confused. Eddie Bauers came with painted grilles, XLT's came with chrome plated plastic grilles. It is likely they switched these out to allow the grille to be painted with the "Jurassic Camo" pattern.

Neptune US

2007-07-28 01:08

Sorry, but the Eddie Bauer Explorers’ never came with body color keyed grilles. Only the Limited Editions
had body color keyed grilles (And the grilles equipped on the Jurassic Park Tours, Ford Explorers’ were the XLT
and Eddie Bauer trim Chromed ones)

MN-Cherokee US

2007-07-28 06:11

I stand corrected. He is right, I was mistaken. Eddie Bauers shared the same grill (chromed plastic) with the XLT. I forgot about the Limiteds. But never the less, the Explorers in the movie were XLT's.

They are not visible or used for so long, to me they'd deserve just three stars

2008-01-14 21:01

by the way, wich scenes are the ones where the cars are computer generated?
'cause i can't see...i mean, is very good, i can't see when is a real car and when is a CGI.

the 4 stars are deserved to me, at least the whole t-rex breakout is a classic cinema scene...and the cars are part of that scene.
also,the cars appears since they start the jurassic park tour till the t-rex escape...

Role is big, they are well visible and well used for some time, car is well known and a symbol of the movie as there were also toys etc. with it (not big enough for 5 stars, but they deserve 4).

The T-Rex scene is not as long to make them deserve four stars at all, the roll isnt big at all either and since when well visible means four stars? and the car is in the movei but not necesarily a symbol.

And about CGI, i think it could be the fall scene, anyway it seemed a real car to me even on that bit, so no idea.

Well, I would agree that they deserve four stars also. The fact is that these vehicles are now synonymous with the movie. Everyone knows about them.

yes, i know that, i've seen a few pics on www.flickr.com where appears a wrecked one
as i know, only the third of the movies feature a wrecked explorer...so, is all we have about it.

and yes,deserve 4 stars.
i wish i have one of those and ride around my city, it will be cool
some people will call me a freak fan of the movie lol


i must confess when i was child and i saw the movie at first time i have no idea what to expect, and after watch the movie i became a fan....and my first though was draw the tour cars(yes, the ford explorer's), so this movie change my life in some ways...
after the movie i really start to love the car design...all happen after watch the movie.
so, a movie can change your points of view.
in my experience, this movie gave me inspiration to create new cars and also dream about new trips...
ok, i know this is not a forum but i must share this with everybody.
that's why i love so much the movie.

And this truck is a 1991-1992, heres why, because the 1991-1992 steering wheel is shown on some scenes in the movie, 1993-1994 models had a newer design steering wheel, and this one is an XLT, because it has the XLT bumpers, and clearly says "Explorer XLT" on the back, in some scenes.

yes, is a XLT and 1992 model
that's true 'cause the movie was made during 1992.
please, if u can buy that explorer and customize it like this one, post the pics on this thread(or maybe on the forum a special thread)

I will after college, I dont have the cash to do it yet, nor do I have a job, sorry it took so long to reply, been very busy on you tube a lot, and landrover1 is right, this is a 1992 XLT, and everything on this truck looks original, not custom, i'm thinking that they had them made special by the assembly plant, it looks just like everything is from the assembly plant, and not aftermarket.

Does THIS make you happy, Anti SUV? I've never been much of a truck person, especially Fords. Even I fell in love with this truck the moment I saw it.If I had to have a truck for my first car, this 1992 Ford Explorer XLT would be my one and only choice.

I've noticed you guy talk a lot about building a replica of one of these awesome trucks. I've decided to take on this challenge myself. I'm starting out small with a 1:24 scale 1992 Ford Explorer bu Maisto and may one day work up to 1:1. With a little luck and a lot of help from John Spangler, it should look a little like this:

These are 92's or 91's. Movie was done filming before the 93's were released. The interiors are also consistent with 91/92 models.

JPCR04 US

2009-10-04 05:24

These Explorers are awesome and ever since I saw this movie when I was little i've always wanted to custom make an exact replica. It shouldn't be that hard, and thankfully Explorers aren't that expensive. I saw one that was good running for 800$!

All that has to be done is the paint job, the roof which should be relatively easy and any body shop/auto fabricator to do and bam. How much fun would that be to drive around!?

This is something I've thought out well in advance. I'd hate to be a kill joy, but it's not as simple as cutting a hole in the roof and slapping a pretty dome in it. First of all, glass domes for this purpose aren't exactly in high demand. You'd have to make your own and fit it into the hole in the roof. But it doesn't end there. You still need to seal the dome or you'll end up driving a motorized swimming pool. Once you get past this obstacle, the rest is a question of finding the right parts. If you're really serious about this, I wish you the best of luck. I'd love to have one, too. ;)

Too bad the current generation Explorers now are V6 and look ugly.

Wait a minute, I thought the current Explorers also have a V8.

U251 had both V6 and V8 engines. The new (2011) U502 is V6 only, for now. A 2.0 EcoBoost I4 engine is on its way, available late this year.

The V6 makes the about the same power as the old V8, and is less thirsty. Some die-hard Explorer fans are upset there will not be a V8 for the new Explorer. But looking back, the first generation Explorers (the ones used here in Jurassic Park) were only offered with a V6. There wasn’t a V8 offered.

I hate the new ones, they are ugly and are now crossover's(What a joke!!!), the first and second generations are way better, but this one is the king, it always will be!!!

The Explorers had no powertrain and drivetrain, that's why the shifter's in park when the vehicle were moving. Either electric swap or just rolling cars attached to something.

Both of them are displayed outside a Jurassic Park ride at a theme park in Florida (Universal I think?). One of them is in great condition. The other one that was flipped over and crushed by the T-Rex seems to have had the roof replaced and then been cut in half. The weather has pretty much destroyed the custom dashboard.

It should have been FJ60 Land Cruisers or Land Rover Defender 110s for this role. They are some of the real safari vehicles on this planet not Ford Explorers lol. Although obviously it's product placement.

Finally, after 25 years. This two toy company release a 'exact' replica model of the vehicle.

Sadly, they still got some JP details wrong. But I guess that's what you get for just a "toy"... hopefully Jada toys or GREENLIGHT will make the prefect replica.

Tomica's die cast version, weirdly referred to as "Jurassic World Tour Vehicle," which is proportionally better than Matchbox's but messes up by not having yellow hubcaps.

Both versions are a weird combination of slightly right/slightly wrong so that neither can be the definitive Explorer tour vehicle in this scale.
