Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue [2000] / Kyuukyuu Sentai GoGo V (Rescue Battle Team GoGo Five) [1999]
Go Go V is a pun, since 'Go' means 'five' in Japanese, but in this case it meant go as in the English word. So it was basically Go Go Five. Both series were about rescue-vehicles against demons. Major difference was that GoGoV were all siblings. They were the second Sentai team to be siblings, first was Fiveman (1991) and the third was Magiranger (2005).

Carter/ Matoi (Go Red)Carter was a straight-forward goody-good corn-fed white boy leader. Matoi was a bit more lenient and fun-loving, but just as stern leader.
Joel / Shou (Go Green)Shou was the most angry and bitter towards their father. He and Nagare constantly argue. Completely different from Joel, who was a novelty 'Sky Cowboy' pilot. He like country music and provided much of the comic relief in his chasing of Dr. Fairweather, the female technician. The only other similarity was that they were both pilots.
Chad / Nagare (GoBlue--origin of my e-mail addy)Nagare is responsible, likes planning things out. He works for the Chemical Fire Fighting Brigade. Chad was a water-park stunt guy with Killer Whales before becoming a Ranger and afterwards, became a lifeguard. Chad was modest but a good fighter.
Kelsey / Daimon (Go Yellow)Kelsey is a bit of a controversial character with fans because she was a extreme sports fan and was more masculine than most of the girls on the other shows. Because of one episode of her befriending a lady space pilot, many joked she was a lesbian. Daimon is a Sergeant at the Capital Police Department and the youngest of the boys. He was a bit of a hot-headed.
Dana / Matsuri (Go Pink)Dana and Matsuri were somewhat similar, in that they were both brave and caring. They were do anything for her friends and those in danger. Major difference was that Matsuri had four brothers and Dana had just one brother--Ryan, the Titanium Ranger who had no counterpart in GoGoV.
