The Bronco kit has a few issues but looks like a RAM in the end.
Gecko announced a RAM Kangaroo a while back. They might decide to release a Ram Gun tank if you are lucky, but it will be late type.
Since where in the subject of the Ram Tank. I’ve resad that the Shermans used during the filming of “Band Of Brothers” were Canadian “Grizzly” tanks. You can tel by the tracks.

Just for the record Friendship Models also do a few Ram Kangaroo variants - conversion sets that is:

I picked mine up at a show maybe five or six years ago, and it was £20 back then - good to see an item that is NOT subject to inflation! 
Bear in mind the Friendship conversion needs an Academy M3 as a donor kit for lower hull & running gear…

Panda tracks makes these too. Though i think you’ll need to fabricate the drive sprockets.

Now I feel like painting one of my unfinished Shermans.
Work continues very slowly on my Sturmpanzer IV because the dry season arrived after a remarkably wet May and early June. Even spraying at night with extra thinner, acrylic primer and clear coats dry very quickly and cause clogs. Despite this, all the running gear is painted, clear coated, and ready for oil paints. I just need one somewhat cool and humid day to finish spraying the camouflage.
According to Weather.com, it is currently 56 F and 86% humidity where I live. Having just finished a paint session, those numbers are way off. However, it could mean morning fog is inbound. The California Bay Area is weird that way. That would be a great stroke of luck.

It has been cold and windy here in Brisbane, Australia. I am hoping I can get paint down today though- forecast seems to favour it.

With great sadness I must report that, a short time ago, my Sturmpanzer IV went to Valhalla in rather spectacular fashion. I had real hopes it would become my best yet but there is no hope of recovery. Que Sera, Sera
My airbrush was also damaged and my right hand injured so I am out of action for a while. I will rejoin this Campaign with something else after my hand heals a bit.

Darn… take care and heal well!
I did not know about the Canadian Ram tank. The tracks shown on the Bronco kit box art look different from the dry pin types mentioned. Are they wrong?

They are not wrong.The Ram has an M3 suspension and uses WE210 tracks. The CDP (Canadian Dry Pin) tracks are for the Grizzly.
