    I understand Ford and Isuzu are going to do something similar with their crew cabs.
    The 7 has a steel spare wheel which is okay, although I would rather 5 steels. I dont know what size fuel tank they have ?
    Might go and have a look at one and see if the third row seats could be thrown in the skip and registered as a five seater ?
    The third row seat area has a footwell, so that area could hold me bag of golf clubs on a trip over to play the Nullabor course.

    Ford have created a Territory/Ranger cross breed.From pictures it appears to be a full size 4x4 to take on Pootrol Lancuiser Pajahero etc.

    After experiencing France's finest the other day you can keep all the **** frog cars you like . You should not need to split a brake calliper in half to remove a brake rotor a real design master piece I went in to it with an open mind but can now see why that junk gets bagged so hard

    It's actually mostly very well engineered and ahead of the Japanese, been that way for over 100 years in France (we had a 1914 Renault, and have a 1912 Delahaye).

    Though you wouldn't catch me dead in a modern Renault hahaha

    The Jap gear is designed for the simple...

    I doubt it.

    In the "cash for comments" affair a few years back, John Laws was done for passing off advertisements for his views and as a result then had to ring a bell when he was doing an ad that could be taken for his views. I wonder why this doesn't apply to 4wd presenters? For sure most of us are aware of what is going on but some people may actually think these 4wd presenters are actually giving their own views - no different to Johny Laws.

    So in your motoring world there is Japan, Korea and France? No other countries rate a mention? Like Australia, the USA or the rest of Europe?
