I bought a used grille guard last week that was advertised as a Ranch Hand Limited Edition for my 06 King Ranch. It didn't come with any mounting brackets, so I called the local Ranch Hand shop to see about getting a set ordered, and asked about the grille guard I have. He said he's never heard of a Limited Edition, so now I'm wondering if I didn't get the real deal. It has the Ranch Hand plate riveted to the front like all the other models, so I don't know exactly what to think here.

Anyone else ever heard of a Limited Edition?

 

No, never heard of limited edition on Ranch Hands, although I have seen them painted in (Pale Adobe) color to match the King Ranch bumpers, which could be somewhat limited as most all of Ranch Hand's products are black.
Not sure if Ranch Hand painted the Pale Adobe color though.

I ended up talking to a rep from Ranch Hand that had me send her pictures of the grille guard. She said it was indeed a limited edition as they didn't sell many with what came on this guard. She also said that it wasn't for the year model truck I have it on, and she's surprised it mounted up.
