    As the saying goes "the customer is always right". Little demand killed off the Dunnydore. (As an aside dunnysore, dunnydire both came up as typos on my phone).

    What a crock! Absolutely nothing wrong with the way the "Superutes" are powered. No problems since inception. But Diesel just isn't fashionable these days.
    What a load of cods wallop!

    As if General Motors did not know that was going to happen - the Holden Insignia was sold for maybe two years along side the old Commodore before the Insignia Badges were taken off and Commodore badges put on. It was a sales dud as the Insignia in Aust so did GM really think sales would be any better with Commodore badges on it - doh.

    I agree with you, People waffle, "rave on" about racing stuff ya can buy from the showroom, then they don't like that either,....I actually thought the diesel utes were ok, but for sure they would've been better with a few more out there,...we'll see what they're like with petrol V8s in 'em?
