That's sick, nice find!

With all due respect, Australia had high performance pickups for AGES

Eg fpv super persuit. 315kw, 550nm, top speed 250km/h(limited)
That's stock standard

Which? I'd take an Aussie V8 Ute or even the Ford F6 Typhoon over that F250 any day.

Oh god hold on. I have to barf. A Ford Truck modded for speed.
I pray it doesn't spread. The redneck hick disease! Its like ricers for trucks!!
AHHGHGHHGHHGHHGHHG *death*
*slowly rots and leaves a request in my will to be melted down and made into hick cologne*
okay. im done.

For those of you who can't tell size, the ute in the pic I Posted is 1.5m at the roof line.. It's by no stretch a hick mobile lol
It's basically size of a sedan like the pontiac gto
Here is a actual gto ute we have here (hsv maloo)

You guys in the states get the sedan version of this

And for size comparison next to a hilux

It's hardly a truck either. Unibody on a car platform. It's like a station wagon with the top cut off. I like it though.

Yep pretty much I think the station wagons are better looking, but the tradesmen here love themselves a V8 ute.

Although you wont go and put tools in the baci of a maloo lol. Its fucking expensive (80000?)
You put tools in the front of it tho lol /jk :p

serialk11r · 08-30-2011, 06:25 AM

Is it just me or did they forget to put an aerodynamic cover :O or is that against the rules.

WTF do you do with it then!?! I thought thats what the tradies did.

Yeh you do put tools in the front

not the helpful kind though.

70NYD · 08-30-2011, 10:40 AM

No you didn't get what I said. Most tradies I know have a commodore or falcon ute, but rarely do they have a maloo or a persuit for work purposes. I know one guy who uses a maloo for work, and he just drives it to and from work, OCCASIONALLY picking up some parts for the machine shop.
