sell FD for holden ute?? am i nuts?

[Shifty]

The V6 is a great choice actually, if you enjoy the close company of other men that is.

Personally I'd go for the V8.

I'm with FatBoy, I use the trailer more then I have people in the back seat. If it wasn't for our parents bitching about driving places even though we have bought them newish cars then a ute would be in the driveway.

If I could get a trailer with seats then everyone would be happy :D

If you love sporting a mullet, the ute is the only way to go.
It's a real sports car! And the No Fat Chicks stickers along with the 4 10' long CB aerials just look dumb on an FD (well, any RX7 really).

Everytime i kick my shin on the cunt of a box trailer in my yard i regret buying an SS sedan instead of an SS ute. I knew i should have listened to Spammy - he knows all. And i'd have been about 15k better off.

you are mad, I would give my left nut for a ute instead of the family car but last time I checked department of human services deems occy strapping kids in the back of a ute "Child Abuse"

I believe it's OK if you use the "lap-sash" occy-strap arrangement.

Too soon for the jokes???

Something like the XR6T but uteish...

Crazy idea.. but XR6T ute?

[vrmmmpshhh]

errr dont think youve read me correctly, ive loaned from ford, a xr6t ute.

just wondering what life is like with a atmo v6.

[carazy]

about 60kw to little.

I think you'll be pissed off with how slow they are after owning an FD.
If your not towing anything around then get the turbo ute in a manual. They are around the joint for the price you want.
Failing that, an XR8 / SS V8 ute would be a crap load of fun.

If your thinking V8's the Ford is the better car stock, but the SS has more available boltons and would be the better car for mods.

[vrmmmpshhh]

not thinking of any mods except some nice wheels, lowering and a catback exaust.

had to return the xr6t ute today, overall it was a nice package and would suit my needs, only problem was the agricultural silver colour it came in.

[rj_astra]

XR6 ute = leaf spring goodness at the rear - lol

Perhaps this is more your style

[ViNcEnXo]

For a Jumbuck that actually looks quite tidy
