How much are Galaxies and Rangers going for nowadays?? Last time I paid
any attention was back in the 80's when I was looking for a unit they
were running $4-500 range, and of low quality. Been using a Teaberry
Stalker XI Export since 86(uses the same chassis as the Grant and the
148GTL. Been using that ever since....
