—GTA Vice City Website.

The Rancher is an 4X4 off-road vehicle that appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and Grand Theft Auto IV. It is manufactured by Declasse in the HD Universe.

In Grand Theft Auto V, the Rancher is absent and instead, a 4-door version of the car is featured, known as the Rancher XL.

Design

3D universe

The Rancher is a medium-sized SUV designed with off-road capabilities in mind, featuring large tires, soft suspensions and a high ground clearance. Despite its size, the two-door Rancher is only capable of holding two occupants, as its rear compartment is not capable of carrying passengers, similar to two-door pickup trucks in the series. In general, the Rancher resembles a 1981-1988 Chevrolet K5 Blazer (but with added turning signals and different taillights).

Despite being absent from GTA VCS, the SUV has its gang version. It also has its FBI version, which is "semi-absent" (it needs a cheat device in order to appear).

Grand Theft Auto IV

The Rancher returns to GTA IV with a highly similar design, only now higher quality and slight cosmetic adjustments. It is based on the same vehicle.

The GTA IV rendition, however, resembles a Cheyenne Trim 1989-1991 K5 Blazer; the taillights and the slight lean of the rear of the cab resemble 1980-1996 Ford Broncos. The overall body design resembles that of the 2-door version of the Jeep Cherokee XJ.

The Rancher may come with several accessories:

  • A rear bed-cap (known as camper shells).
  • Rear mounted roll-bar with spotlights and card boxes in the bed.
  • Two different front bullbars.
  • A rear bedbox with several card boxes also in the rear.

Performance

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Rancher is one of the better SUVs in the game. Performance is only average, but its chassis is better. Its handling is above average with a very low speed. The suspension is soft, which makes the car quite comfortable, even on broken surfaces such as railroad tracks.

Grand Theft Auto IV

In Grand Theft Auto IV, the Rancher is not an on-road performance oriented vehicle. Its suspension consists of solid axles front and rear, as opposed to the independent suspension on more refined SUV's and pick-ups. This layout, coupled with a potent eight cylinder engine, means that on-road cornering is an erratic affair, with plenty of sliding and body roll.

However, the old-fashioned suspension, together with 4WD and an easily controlled engine, starts to pay off when the vehicle is taken off-road. In the hands of a skillful driver, the Rancher is an excellent off-roader. The high ground clearance means boulders are negotiated with ease. The solid axles keep the vehicle planted, although the driver must always be wary of the risk of a roll-over (due to the high center of gravity).

It shares the same engine and horn sound as the Bobcat.

Modifications (GTA: San Andreas)

The Rancher can be modified at the TransFender mod garage with paint (two colours), hoods, exhausts, spoilers, lights, nitrous (All), roofs, wheels, stereo (Bass Boost) and hydraulics. However, the Rancher spawned by Cheats (with blacked out windows) cannot be modified, nor can it be exported.

The Rancher can be modified at TransFenders.

Rancher XL

Police Rancher

Main article: Police Rancher

The Police Rancher is a police variant of the Rancher XL used by the North Yankton State Patrol in GTA V, in conjunction with Police Roadcruisers.

Special Variants

  • A unique "Lure Rancher" (internal name "rnchlure") can be spawned with a spawn cheat in GTA San Andreas. The vehicle's internal name suggests that it was intended for use in the mission "Lure", however a regular Rancher is used in that mission. The only distinction of this variant from the normal Rancher are its black-tinted windows (which obscure the occupants of the vehicle, a central element of the Lure mission). Unlike the normal Rancher, the "lure" version cannot be exported or modded at mod garages.
  • A completely black Rancher, looking like a shortened FBI Rancher, can be obtained in GTA Vice City. To do this, the player must complete the "Test Track" mission three times, each time faster than the previous. On the fourth attempt, a PIG driving a black Rancher will appear and start driving around the track. He will not try to harm the player, even when the car gets stolen from him. This car can not be found anywhere else in the game without cheating.
  • In GTA IV, a Rancher is among a range of cars requested in Stevie's Car Thefts, featuring a unique blood red and light gray body color. The Rancher may come with or without a camper shell, as well as one of a range of accessories, much like a regular Rancher.

Trivia

General

  • In its appearances in GTA San Andreas and GTA IV, the Rancher plays the following radio stations by default when entered:
  • The name "Rancher" is similar to Ranger, a compact pickup manufactured by Ford. The "Ranger" name is further used in San Andreas as the police version of the Rancher.
    • The Rancher also somewhat resembles a Ford Bronco, the Ranger's 4X4 variant.
  • The vehicle makes a cameo appearance in the Rockstar Vancouver game, Bully [1].

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

  • In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the rear-view mirrors will not have its reflectors rendered fully when the Rancher has its headlights on, this is a probably due to it being an improper render or graphical error.

Grand Theft Auto IV

  • There is a wrecked version of it which can be seen in most ghettos and junkyards in Grand Theft Auto IV.
