In Australia the super duty pick up is available with a straight 6 turbo diesel 4.2 liter, along with the powerstroke, They also still make the 302 but theirs is a 302 cleveland like a boss 302 I think

They also still use names like Falcon, Fairlane, Ltd and Fairmont, and their Stangs are only available as a Cobra model no V-6's only dohc V-8s

Now if I could only figure out how many hp in kilowatt so I could see how much power some of these cars are making

Anyone know how many hp in a kw ?

Weird I never knew of this other side

I don't see an F150 on the Aussie site. Seems the Falcon UTE is taking its place. Is the Falcon UTE a rear wheel drive?

Cool 4.2L inline six turbo diesel: 177 horsepower @ 3400 and (if I remember the conversion correctly) 370 foot pounds torque @1600!

Wow. This might just sway me from my trusty gasoline 300 I6... wonder how the job market is in Austrialia???

And only Mustang Cobras, I wish we only had cobras here, the V-6 model is a disgrace, I read in hot rod the Licolns Ls's 3.9 V-8 is going to have a supercharger bolted on to it and it will be the next Base V-8 in the stangs in 2003, To me that sounds like on slug of a stang
