This Ute or in fact all American utes entering Australia will affect the sales of small utes for sure as more people realising that these utes are more sort of daily and weekend getaway with ease with big cab and big loading bed
No I don’t think because they are a different price tag
I think the sub compact Ute's like the Ford mavrik would destroy all sales for mid size Ute's
needs the Supercharged Voodoo V8 and where is the Lightning? Come on Ford Australia at least give the AU market the ProPower Hybrid version. Now its time for Toyota with the Tundra.
I Accept the challenge 👍🏻
Yes, good stuff but does it come with a gun rack in the back window to display your semi automatic? Just kidding, of course it doesn't but my experience in TX gives paise for thought because 75% of Texas Trucks have one fitted as an after sales option.
Rifle storage has moved behind or under the back seat these days. Too many sticky fingers to leave anything valuable in view.
4:48 that is because in the US it's towing capacity is over 6 tonne, it's been lowered to 4.5 tonne in Australia so it tows with absolutely 0 issue
I hope the oz version of F-150 onboard navigation system have a list of addresses for F-150 proofed shopping centres 😅
Do these come as a ute or only a four door Flog-Mobile?
no matter how small or how big the size of a ute is, the trunk size is always TINY AF
I know that the Ford F-Series is America's best selling vehicle for many years now.
well done you.
@@shaun1900, Aussies love to drive big vehicles like how the US loves SUVs and pickup trucks, but Aussies love outback driving, if you know what I mean.
@@CrystalClearWith8BE another statement of the obvious. You could make a career out of it.
80K CAD in Canada. I feel bad for you guys down under. Wish it was cheaper for you guys.
One of these with a canopy would be better than the landcruiser 300 with not much storage options
Thoughts?
Ben, your thoughts on the exterior side mirrors when towing, reversing?
Perfectly acceptable. But you won't be using them much once you get the hang of the Pro Trailer Back-up Assist system - it's really neat.
@@drivebz thank you.
Looks great but is it a ram beater. ❤. Is it better than a rapter ❤. Or. Ranger v6. Geoff steele 13/10/23. How does it compare to the ram. Trx ??????
Way better than a Ranger V6, it’s a magnificent beast that once you start driving, you start feeling the pleasure. It just feels so much fun and you are in control. Apart from the parking issues because of its massive size, everything else is just amazing.
I’ve driven all All Ford Trucks for a number of days, Ranger 3.2L, 2.0 BiTurbo, 3.0 V6 and also Raptor 3.0 V6 Petrol. F150 3.5 Twin Turbo tops them all.
Solid 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯✔️
Hi so seriously- no V8 option from the factory?
Not in Australia from Ford, grey imports Yes
Are there laws in Australia against left hand drive vehicles?
If it's over 25 years old you can import a LHD and drive it with no problem but new cars must be RHD.
Shame no power stroke option
It's the best selling pickup truck
Yeah for wankers
I'll wait for the Chinese to bring a large pick up to Australia that will be half the price of one of these and probably be better built.
True
Doubt it. If it’s from China. They make crap.
"better built" are you kidding me?
@@marcoschagas9646 no
Why do you keep calling a truck as a "car?" And why there's an amber side markers? Not from the ford factory not supposed to be there.
And this is my first time seeing this because there's a recent recall about those trucks now
Australia's new car market includes passenger vehicles, SUVs, utes (or trucks if you prefer) and vans, so we use 'car' as a collective turn. The lights may have had changes from models sold in North America to reflect the requirements of Australian Design Rules to ensure compliance for sale here.
Why bother - if they cannot build it in the states with right hand drive on the assembly line, don't pull it apart to do so here in AU . Pulling it apart and modify to right hand makes it second hand = loss value / reliability / insurance risk $ etc and the stupid only buy it $ .
Ford is having enough trouble supplying enough trucks for the LHD market in the US and Canada. I have been waiting for 20 months for my F450 order and it is still not scheduled to be built.
They've got a factory warranty. I'm pretty sure nobody cares.
I guess you've never seen how good the remanufacture is of Fords, Rams and Chevs. They'll hardly lose value 😂
@@khrome69 I will stick to mahindra - reliability is everything - everyone in family can have a car for the price of 1 suburban that will need weeks/mths off the road to fix.
@@pauldoitcheap4343 A Mahindra won't tow a 3.5t van though.
Should you buy one of these giant monster trucks?
Cons: TWICE as likely to kill a person in an accident, consume way more fuel than other vehicles and painful to park.
Pros: Be a really big, tough maaaaaan (not really, people think the opposite).
Tell me you’re a beta male without telling me you’re a beta male
I reckon that it will sell like hot cakes. Much to the dismay of the knockers. Expensive? Yeah but look at what a Landcruiser 300 costs and probably can’t tow the giant caravans the cashed up retirees love.
cashed up retirees don't tow !
Not the new at all
lol what a total con. No way is this worth the money ford are asking. Especially given their less the clean record on reliability on recent models. What a joke.
Im glad the f series are back but albo and idiot Bowen are putting a carbon tax on them and trying there best to ban them from coming to Australia since they want us all driving electric BS vehicle's
I get that these are powerful amazing and iconic American pickup trucks however the price is pretty damn steep.
Think ill stick with my Toyota hilux
Nah you need the F-150
Only if it was closer to price of Ford Ranger 🥲 This is way expensive
