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 it rear compartment is not capable of carrying passengers, similar to two-door pickup trucks in the series. In general, the Rancher resembles a [[wp:Chevrolet K5 Blazer#1973-1991|1981-1988 Chevrolet K5 Blazer]] (but with added turning signals and different taillights). The GTA IV rendition, however, resembles a [[wp:Chevrolet K5 Blazer#1973-1991|Cheyenne Trim 1989-1991 K5 Blazer]]; the taillights and the slight lean of the rear of the cab resemble [[wp:Ford Bronco|1980-1996 Ford Broncos]]. The GTA IV rendition is manufactured by [[Declasse]].

Until GTA IV, the Rancher is depicted with a camper shell permanently included over its bed. The GTA IV rendition, however, features variants of the Rancher with or without a camper shell. Pickup variants of the Rancher may also include a roll bar with top-mounted offroad lights, a brush guard, or a bull bar. All variants of GTA IV's Rancher also feature nerf bars. The rear bed-lids of pre-GTA IV Ranchers are hinged to the top, while those of the GTA IV rendition are hinged at the bottom on the truck bed, with an additional glass lid hinged to the top for the camper shell variant, similar to its real-life counterpart.

In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], the Rancher is not a on-road performance oriented vehicle. It's suspension consists of solid axles front and rear, as opposed to the independent suspension on more refined SUVs and pick-ups. This layout, coupled with a powerful V8 engine, means that on-road cornering is an erratic affair, with plenty of sliding and body roll.  
In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], the Rancher is not a on-road performance oriented vehicle. Its suspension consists of solid axles front and rear, as opposed to the independent suspension on more refined SUVs and pick-ups. This layout, coupled with a powerful V8 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 a 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).

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

Unlike the normal Rancher, the "rnchlure" version cannot be [[Exports and Imports|exported]] or modded at [[Mod Garages|mod garages]]. (GTA San Andreas)
