Ford Ranchero

The Ranchero was Ford's answer to the Chevrolet El Camino car/pickup hybrid. Initially based on the Ford Thunderbird, it was also based on the Ford Falcon, Ford Galaxie, and Ford Torino before being discontinued in the seventies. A similar model known as the "Falcon Ute" is currently marketed in Australia, but no plans have been made to import it. The final Rancheros were based on the LTD fullsize sedan.
