Not technically a ranger. I think ranger was basically a trim level back in the day?
Ranger was a sub model of various F-100s and Broncos from 1965 to 1979. Became a standalone compact truck in 1982 as a 1983 model.

Hi RP,

Hmm....did not notice this....No idea then other than it is a Bronco.... I was certainly there in 1979 but do not recall a Bronco Ranger I had a 1981 Bronco for quite a while....not very fuel efficient... Must have been a Marketing rebadge without any engineering content needed. I do know they did regional stuff and this may be the case here....not sure... most Marketing regional stuff was usually just decal stuff...

Best,
Phil
Bronco Ranger Emblem Committee Meeting 1978:
Chairman: “ are we happy with this emblem?

Member: “yes”

Chairman: “ then get the damn thing up to the 19th floor for approval before Phil sees it!!”

Also moment of silence for our good friend and fellow Ranger aficionado Mr RP on his untimely but inevitable 2nd or 3rd banning..
