The Cruze in my opinion is a decent looking car. That thing though just screams pure Daewoo.
C'mon Ford! T6 suv and maybe a Ranger 335 even just to generate interest in the brand! EDIT: meant the Ranger 335 as a one-off concept for auto shows etc. |

Edit: Paul Gover's first drive (in todays' Carsguide newspaper) of the Colarado ute states quite emphatically not in the same class as Ranger and BT50...maybe Holden should drop the bit about their local involvement in it's development...and we all know Gover's general thoughts on the General's products, lol Last edited by Dr Smith; 15-06-2012 at 06:18 PM. |

I drove alongside a Raptor a few days ago.
I didn't realize how big and tough looking they are. It makes all other "SUVs" looks like girls cars. Raptor for me please.

Check out the Ranger thread if you think 4 months is a long time to wait for a Ranger.

Isn't the Ranger 'wagon' called Everest or something? *disclaimer failing old man memory*
Also...WAForce8 check Carsales, most variants are on there excluding Wildtrak, dealer allocation is a wee bit odd tho. (not sure about supercab either)

I hope Ford actually calls it Explorer for markets outside of the USA, that name would work well in Australia. Prado starts at around $60K and tops out just under $100K, boy wouldn't that help FoA's local manufacturing justification... |
