Will be surprised if anyone has had one over here as there doesn't seem to be many imported.

Spotted one for sale and it peaked my curiosity, really smart looking trucks (in my eyes) that seem to have OK performance and interesting looks! Just wondering if anyone has any knowledge of them here, aside from crap fuel consumption they seem to be a pretty decent package & better roadholding than similar sized pickups! Can't imagine there is a lot to go wrong on them aside from maintenance.

Any interesting alternatives? Bearing in mind I'm 23 so sadly SRT rams and Lightnings are out of reach at the moment.

Those seem like not too bad things, easy to replace at least!

Trying to find any reviews is hard obviously due to the age, but they seem to be the more 'car like' of the trucks. I realise your works one is the proper utilitarian one but would you say it's an okay steer? I realise there's a good amount of difference between the normal and Xtreme (shocks, ARB's etc) but seem good.


I've no idea what I'm directly trying to ask, I have no real need for one but find myself totally taken by them hehe

That's pretty positive stuff! Started looking at the possibility of importing one. Got family in Florida so that could help a bit.

Then I started looking at F150 Lightnings, they are cheaper than I expected hehe still dear though & would be more to run though so probably out of the question.

I have genuinely no clue why I've got this sudden obsession, there's nothing in my mind thats saying 'no that's a silly idea' biggrin
