I see Bend Pack has a sale going of their Ranger manual tire machine for $180. It looks same as the HF but it's $100 less. Is there any real difference?

Have links? Searching for Bend Pack Ranger doesn't pull up anything that's anywhere near $180.

Looks like an overpriced tire changer on sale for $175.

I changed many a tire using a manual machine back in the late 1960's when I worked at a gas station while going to college. They worked OK for steel wheels (which was almost everything back then) but I can't imagine them not doing damage to aluminum wheels. That bar scraps the wheel lip as it goes around.
