So I go on CL this morning to get my daily dose of Rangers for sale.

There are some little local dealers that have half way decent rangers, but I always end up filtering by "owner". These poor dealers never get a chance. Why? TAGS.

I'm in Columbus Ohio. Looking for Rangers. I type Rangers in the search.

Up pops a 2015 GMC Sierra plow truck, in Fenton Michigan. ?

Here were his "tags" in a large paragraph at the bottom of his post (it's a dealer):

commercial work vehicle Econoline E150 E250 E350 F150 F250 F350 Savana G1500 G3500 G2500 Express 1500 2500 3500 Silverado Sierra Ram Van Wagon Sprinter P30 Astro Safari Uplander Caravan 4x4 Adrian Steel Ladder Rack fx Cargo Liner Onan Generator commercial and fleet vehicles extended cab ranger locker shelves awd bins drawers boom bucket food truck service long bed truck bus mini sonoma dakota P 32 P32 P 30 pie wagon utilimaster 20' 40' shipping freight storage container 4wd cargo roll up swing a/c air conditioning door transit connect service body minivan savanna extended long 6.0 5.4 5.7 4.6 city work vehicles diesel 5.9L 7.3L 5.9 7.3 liter automatic high top mobile digital sign truck manual handyman electrician plumber contractor minivan hot shot driver straight truck box truck cargo van work truck utility truck bucket truck moving truck step van stake truck car hauler flat bed contractor cab&chassis moving van work van brandfx reading mobile power hydraulic lift gate ton cummins power outlets work bench ultron conduit holder roof rack security lock bar emergency strobe kuv wheel chair wheelchair handicap van BFX pie gas diesel light medium heavy duty hop top long 170 wb pro master promaster transit connect cab n chassis cab and chassis cab & Chassis Bus Buses handicap wheelchair wheel chair lift Sprinter KUV forklift fork lift moffitt Princeton piggy back mobile billboard bill board sign truck advertising ottawa terminal tractor spotter yard truck ford cargo vans box trucks work trucks service utility trucks bucket trucks step vans moving trucks best deals cutaway

This should be illegal, I need to bleach my eyes now having seen a stupid GMC when I was looking for a Ranger.

It is a city in Michigan among its other meanings.

I'm sick of brick and mortar shopping in the USA and only finding things from China!

Since we are ranting...lol

I hate that every ford F150 part is tagged ranger as well!!

Just when you think you found the cool item you've been searching for, you go to the site, punch in your VIN and it says " does not fit your vehicle. Can we show you stuff that can?"

So Sunday was a "down" day for me. No projects, just relax. Recliner and laptop... I decided to search for Rangers, like Jim, to see what is around and what they are going for. I see what you mean, Jim. Tags for absolutely everything so it will hit no matter what. I get it that these people want exposure for their SH!T aftermarket parts, but it is truly ridiculous. Not to mention the multiple posts of the same crap. Disgusting...
