Wink Rarest Ranger?
I'm thinking the '88 Ranger GT, or the '02-'03 Ranger Edge Tremor.....

Rare being LOW production.....something that is seldom seen..........

There was a model that I saw brand new on the local Ford Dealers lot in the mid-late 80s that had dually type fenders and super wide single rear tires may be a cab visor....thinking it was called something like a Boss?? anyone ever see one of these??

My vote goes to Ranger EV (but then I'm kinda prejudiced see below) at least ten years production, perhaps 10,000 made total

I have an 88 Ranger GT. The only
thing I see different form any other
88 is the wide plastic trim around
the bottom of the body and the bumpers.
I never had seen one until this one
showed up a few months ago. Are they rare?

The 88 ranger GT did have a body kit but I believe that ford also gave it and upgrade with an 8.8 rear axle. That is the only real difference

Barnie in this country I think they are rare for sure.
I have never seen one ever. I would love to have one
so very bad. A 4X4 would be great.
