The Ranchero's frame is different from a Torino frame from just aft of the rear axle "hump". The Ranchero framerails are relatively flat from there back(because of the bed) but the Torino has a bend or two in them before the rear most body mount, From the rear "hump" forward everything else as far as I know is identical.

Yeah, It's a Hybrid...It burns gas and tires.

No matter how good she looks, somebody, somewhere, is tired of her sh*t.

The Ranchero and Wagon are the same frame...wheelbase wise.
