A friend of a friend has a jalapeņo stepside, I think I've seen it parked a few blocks up, I should snag a pic. We where all kinda drunk at a bar and we both slapped its rear fender bulge due to it being a sexy ass truck :P

Just how rare is my 1983 Ford Ranger with 4 speed, 2.3l 4 cylinder and 4 wheel drive?
I have done some internet searching for these and found none.

How can I find out how many were made and how many are still on the road?

MyRanger is rare. No rust holes the size of your head, has an exhaust system, has tires with actual tread, has brakes that work, usually somewhat clean, and it isn't a chivvy or a dodge. Oh, that's up where I live.

What's more rare is a 5 year old thread being resurrected, there were only a few dozen of them I have seen.
