Oh, and most of them here run on propane (about $1.70 a gallon)
Here is a couple of good examples:

shifting with your left isnt as hard as you would think. dont ask me how i know i wont answer. but the harder part is remebering that most of the car is on the left not the right. id love a right hand drive ranger. really screw with the ricers...lol

They didn't run propane from the factory, all of them are aftermarket systems (although our current Falcons do...)
Because of gas prices our current guberment gives you 2k back when you install a propane system, or gives you 1k if you purchase a new vehicle with propane already installed - because of that, and the cheaper price, all vehicles that chew gas run it.
(in case you couldn't guess Aus has lots'o'propane)
If ya wanna run propane, let us know, there is a LOT of resources I can give you

I think grunts or foot soilders sounds better than a peon. Peon sounds so derogatory, as grunt or foot soilder sounds more like the work horses. Not complaining just throwing out an idea take it or leave it no hurt feelers.
