You know, I don't actually mind the colour of the canopy. I think it looks rugged! How are they to drive compared to the previous gen?

I'm off to the Adelaide one on Sunday afternoon. Been heaps of rain here for the last week or two, so should be nice and muddy

I'm still puzzled. What does vehicle weight have to do with airbags?

Different ADRs required, different set of regs to comply with.

Too light to be classified as a commercial vehicle.

Did anyone notice if the Hardtop has a bulkhead behind the front seats, and if so does it restrict seat movement?

Yes it does have a bulkhead, but even so the seat movement is much freer-er than the singlecabs.
