This issue of the online magazine talks about overlanding and bugging out. This is a Ford Ranger site, but what if there was such a thing as a Ford Ranger camper? The Roll A-Long Ranger popped up on the internet a year or two ago when someone was trying to sell it. Since then, at least one or two others have also surfaced. There isn't much information on these trucks. Nobody knows who built these vehicles. What we do know is that the camper is a fiberglass body built on a Ford Ranger chassis.

If you have any information about these vehicles, please email it to admin@therangerstation.com. You can also post in the Roll-A-Long Ranger discussion thread. Thanks.
