    Do you think this wasn’t said in the context of:

    Xc to Xd, XF to EA
    VL to VN
    HT to HQ
    WB to VQ
    MkIII Cortina to TC

    No need to rename a product just because an evolution occurred.

    Not sure I follow,

    Falcon evolved all the way from 1961 XK through to 2016 FG , the next Ford to replace them was the Mustang

    WB was a Kingswood, VQ was a Caprice,

    what about the ZB is no more a Commodore that the Pretender is a Defender

    Exactly evolved - with some fundamentally HUGE changes during evolution. And that was over shorter timeframes.

    Everyone went mental at the VN, the XD and it’s boxy shape, The VQ Stato looked nothing like the predecessor.

    The later Commy Coupe copped a flogging for not being a real Monaro..

    The Defender wasn’t a basic box because they wanted it to be, it *needed to be*, it was because the Poms were broke, and LR needed something cheap as all heck that could do the job. Back then nobody had home AC either... fast forward... almost everyone has AC, safety laws have changed, the markets are saturated and the average punter - not one of the ****y 5k buyers globally - wants more. So why is there a problem with the name?

    For someone that very successfully built and drives an electric series Land Rover your tastes are just all very odd

    (not directed at goingbush)
    Besides, arent we STILL waiting on the production tesla truck? what happened to this glorious truck that was going to transform the transport industry.

    So I wonder how many years on years is it going to be before this 4x4 triangle wedge thing is in production.

    *sound of crickets chirping*
