In GTA San Andreas, the Ranger is depicted as a [[police]]-issued [[Rancher]] that is outfitted with sirens, light bars, radio antenna and a criminal-hold in the back. The Ranger is primarily native in rural [[State of San Andreas|San Andreas]], where rough terrain merits its presence. A peculiarity of the Ranger is that smoke will emerge from ''the center'' of the vehicle after sustaining heavy damage instead of its engine in the front. Its right headlight also does not light up completely, it only glows. It's unknown whether this is a glitch or intended by the producers of GTA or probably to differ the [[Rancher]].

For the black four-door variant of the Rancher used by the FBI in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, see FBI Rancher.
For the police variant of the Rancher in Grand Theft Auto V, see Police Rancher.

The Ranger is a off-road vehicle that appeared in Grand Theft Auto: London 1969, Grand Theft Auto: London 1961 and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

Design

GTA London

The London renditions of the Ranger, with a top-down profile similar to a Land Rover 109" Series II, are essentially 4x4s comparable to Grand Theft Auto 1's 4x4 and Repair Van, representing the era's and setting's off-road vehicle. Despite its use by civilians, the Ranger only appears with a green body and a white roof. Like the Repair Van, it also features a front-lid mounted spare tire, similar to a Land Rover. The Ranger grants the player an average sum of money when exported.

GTA San Andreas

In GTA San Andreas, the Ranger is depicted as a police-issued Rancher that is outfitted with sirens, light bars, radio antenna and a criminal-hold in the back. The Ranger is primarily native in rural San Andreas, where rough terrain merits its presence. A peculiarity of the Ranger is that smoke will emerge from the center of the vehicle after sustaining heavy damage instead of its engine in the front. Its right headlight also does not light up completely, it only glows. It's unknown whether this is a glitch or intended by the producers of GTA or probably to differ the Rancher.

It also has a different paint job from other vehicles in the SAPD. The Police cars have the 'panda' paintjob, with black fronts and hoods, white doors and roofs and black rears and trunks. However, the Ranger has a black front with a white hood, white doors with half the roof painted black and the other half white, and black rears.

The Ranger and the Rancher

Performance

GTA London

GTA London's Ranger is a somewhat lumbering vehicle, with average top speed but below-average acceleration, bulky weight, poor brakes and poor handling. However, the Ranger does have one of the fastest maximum reversing speed, on par with the Beagle 3. The Ranger's based export value is £500 if delivered in perfect condition.

GTA San Andreas

GTA San Andreas's Ranger handles somewhat the same as the original Rancher, but it is much faster, having a top speed similar to that of some sport cars. It also has a slightly larger ground clearance, and its more durable body can sustain more damage than the Rancher. It is a great off-road vehicle and can easily drive over rocks. Despite this, because of its weight and somewhat poor traction, it isn't the best vehicle for hill climbing. Doing so will often cause it to tip over, falling down the mountain. However, it can accelerate extremely well even on steep inclines.

Locations

GTA London

  • TBA

GTA San Andreas

  • Regularly spawn driving in the rural areas of San Andreas, driven by two sheriff officers.
  • When having a wanted level in rural areas, the sheriff will chase the player using Rangers.
  • Can spawn parked in front of police stations in rural areas. Stealing them will not attract a wanted level.
  • Spawns in front of the El Quebrados Police Station. It is owned by Barbara Schternvart. The vehicle only becomes accessible if the player's relationship with Barbara reaches 50%, or if the player manage to tow it to a garage. It has a unique license plate that reads "CUFFS".

Trivia

  • Most of the time when a Ranger appears from behind in a vehicle pursuit, they will have their lights and siren off attempting to look like a normal civilian car trying to surprise the player, it also applies for Police Car if they are lured by player into rural and desert areas. The FBI Rancher and Barracks OL will also do it, while all cops won't do it in the city, possibly because large amount of traffic on the road.
  • During the development of San Andreas, the Ranger had a different color scheme, missing decals, and different wheels.
