Is it just me...

Or do others think it odd to mix Ranchero's with Econoline Vans? I've not posted much down here because there's not much Ranchero spoken here.

Love the Econoline's too, but I think each type deserves their own category. Ranchero's are already a diverse mixture being made from Fairlanes, Falcons, Torinos, so to add Vans in the mix too (or vice versa) seemed odd the first time I came here. Am I alone in thinking this? I know, it would be a pain to divvy it up now, but sometimes you just gotta ask.

OK, got that off my chest. I feel much better now!

Ranchero's are already a diverse mixture being made fromfull sized Ford's (1957/59), Fairlane's (1967/71), Falcons (1960/66), Torinos (1968/76), LTD II's (1977/79), so to add Vans in the mix too (or vice versa) seemed odd the first time I came here.

Given the low participation on this segment of the website I can see why they grouped the two together. We all bleed blue anyway.

Rancheros and econolines both spawned from Falcons, seems logical enough to me.

I've never had the feeling of being spawned from a falcon, those are Ranchero wannabes.
