The combo side exit exhausts/side steps are cool.
I like the look of the Cargo cab-overs too! Surprised that they don't distribute them in other regions apart from South America!


Most people have seen Australian Fords before, the Falcon Ute:




Fitted with a supercharged version of the 5.0l "coyote" engine fitted in the Mustang/F150 or a turbo charged 4.0l I6 and a 6-speed manual or automatic.


Territory (7 seat crossover):


2.7l 200hp V6 diesel or 290hp 4.0 gas I6 (non-turbo version of engine fitted to the Ute), 6 speed automatic (diesel gets 36mpg highway!)


Ranger:


3.2l 200hp 5cyl diesel, 6 speed manual/6 speed automatic or 2.2l 150hp 4cyl diesel, 5 speed manual (only available in 4x2's)


All the vehicles are designed and engineered in Australia, the Ute and Territory are also made here, the Ranger is made in Thailand however.

in light of whats happening in the UK at the moment , the young scumbags who are rioting and looting many areas around the country, i thought i'd post these up. I noticed on the TV yesterday they were F450's they are using , so with the power of google i found these on flickr (hope the guys who actually took the pictures does not mind).

never thought the Met Police had imported them.

yeah thanks we are ok , although a few friends live nearby , we live about 100 miles away from London, although there are rumours flying round all the local youths , easy picking at the monent as nearly every police officer in the country has been called into London , thats why its starting off everywhere else now , no law enforcement left spare.

didnt notice they were RHD , i'll have to look at the ex police auction sites to see if they pop up in a few years ,LHD is ok in the EX as you can normally see of the car in front , but get behind a lorry and i'm stuck lol

I hope they are able to sort it out!

I have a number of friends in London - some of them in the areas that are affected, they have been locked up in their houses all day.

Yeah, you could make a nice camper on the back with the F450 chassis, and from the ex-police auction you should get it at a reasonable price.

Nothing puts down a riot like an F450.
