Boogey Van

[OrangeOutlaw]

When did Boogey Van make its original debut ? What series did it compete in before PSM got a hold of it and .....
When did the No Problem 3 truck debut you know the one with the funky suspension and 4 door broco body?
Also I was wondering if anyone had pictures of the newer Lon Ranger after Donny Smith purchased it and it became a super cab?
Lastley What other Ford Ranger monster trucks were there so far I have
Four wheel crazy,Hercules,Red Racer,Southern Star,Southern Storm,Southern Thunder,Lon Ranger,Bad Influence,Sudden Impact.... Any one know of any more?

[carcrusher]

not sure of which exact event, but pam started in the penda series in 1993. i wanna say indianapolis at the fairgrounds but there is probably a few before that.

[thelegendaryone]

indianapolis 93 for the tv debut, beat bigfoot sometime after that in naples and ran for ushra, special events.

[OrangeOutlaw]

Cool thanks

[skytruckerjr]

there was also ms bigfoot was a ranger (light blue)

[bigtruck11]

Wasn't Power Forward a Ranger for a while too? It seems like there was a couple of LN trucks that were Rangers... or no?


IIRC, the No Problem with the 4-door body/quarter-ellipticals was debuted in about... early '92 or '93, wasn't it?

It was also Bigfoot blue for a while too.

also the iron warrior is a ranger. i think mike vaters owns the truck. and i dont think sudden impact was a ranger. they were all f-250s or a gmc if i remember correctly

[Thunder Chicken]

Demolition Man and Power Forward both ran as Rangers (on the same frame, too) for awhile. I don't know for sure, but I THINK Firemouth was for a while too. I could be wrong on that one though.

[InsanoRacer]

firemouth was an s10

[digger29]

Misbehaven, was a ranger, it was one of Kreg Christensen's trucks.

[InsanoRacer]

the original kaptain insano was a ranger (the old misbehavin body)

[Beerman1]

Sudden Impact has definitely run a Ranger body, as recently as, this year.
still does run a ranger...was in Lincoln Nebraska

[monstermaniac]

Where is Pam Vaters now anyway???Anyone know why she stopped driving???

[KRMc]

Pam Vahle (sp?) is her name now, I believe, not Vaters. Boogey Van was sold to PSM after Mike and Pam got divorced in either 1999 or 2000 I think. The last time I saw her driving the truck was on the controversial "Monster Trux 2000" show that was on UPN that took place at Mesa Park.

[ProTruckChallenge]

i thought sudden impact was on the old tmaxx body?

[Dave Collard]

Depends, lately it's been the ranger.

[Beerman1]

Depends, lately it's been the ranger.not 100% sure, but I dont believe there has been a T Maxx body on the chassis that the Ranger body is on

[Thunder Chicken]

I believe you are correct, Jim. There's two SI trucks, one's a ranger and the other is the old T-Maxx body.

Somebody told me that she runs a Quizno's or Subway, or some kind of franchise sandwich shop like that now.

[Beerman1]

I seem to recall hearing something like that too

[skytruckerjr]

does anyone have a pic of the si ranger

[Beerman1]

does anyone have a pic of the si ranger

someplace, I'll hafta look for it

[Zane Rettew]

im interested to see if they put a Ranger body back on it. Casey had a prety bad roll over in Batesville this past weekend and completly trashed the body.

Richie put his chassis (viper/demon) on its lid for the first time this weekend as well...but with not near the damage that SI had.

[chopper]

I heard about Casey's roll. I don't care about the body on the truck.

Just glad Casey's ok.

[RyanRoberts]

dang it sounds like i missed an awesome show..... btw Superduty body would be nice on that chassis :D or extended cab f-150 long bed !

Just glad Casey's ok.absolutly, duhon said he WAS sore, but ok now

[Zane Rettew]

Yea Casey had us all worried sat night as much pain as he was in. Ive seen him go upside down and every whitch way in those jeeps but never seen him hurting like that.

[Kouvre]

also the iron warrior is a ranger.

Not anymore; Iron Warrior now runs a '97 F-150 body on Mike Vaters' older Black Stallion chassis.

[Thunder Chicken]

I didn't think Vaters's team was still running the Iron Warrior name. Glen wanted it back or something...any news on that, btw?

[RocknRollexpress]

The Iron Warrior Ranger has been returned to Glen and the old Black Stallion chassis runs as the Iron Warrior.

[ProTruckChallenge]

so vaters is still running the name but no longer has the old chassis? does that mean that glen will be running a new truck?
