Us Aussies are very Jealous!!
A decent RH converted pickup is 120k+ here!
I’ve got a new Nissan Patrol ( Nissan Armada), a big van and a small van
Want a F150, Silverado

Rented a Ram1500 from Lax for my solo California touring trip and the dude goes ”you want a nice sedan, mustang?” Nope, want a Ute!

I too drive the new Patrol it’s awesome. My local dealer said there is a big chance Nissan will bring the Titan officially to Aus. I’ll be at the door if they do. Like the Ford Mustang that had prices of over $120k once officially brought in that halved so should the titan 5.6V8 or 5L Cummins. Had the D23 navara and it’s not got the power I want to tow the toy hauler.
You sir made my day
Titan 5.6 with a nice pipe!

I told my wife no sense in even buying a car like that. Lease is a good idea. Never drive it anyway. Then by the time your bored with it, turn it in. $10,000 to drive a 50,000 car. Not bad....

Plowboy my old man had a 08f150. Damn thing was falling apart at 120,000. Leaf springs. Ball joints. Replaced all that. Just to total it at 140k. Must not snow where your at. That thing is clean.

We get a fair bit of white stuff with lots of salt/sand all winter. Truth is, I'm totally anal about my vehicles. Wash, wax, oil /filter changes every 3k. Park way out in the boonies everywhere. Garaged majority of the time. I'm not hard on it but it doesn't get babied either. She sees 90 mph almost every day. 100 miles round trip to work.

Old truck is my daily, but feel like I spend most of time on the mower. Haven’t had as many plant packages/hardscapes jobs this season. Been mainly mowing
love the color on that truck.

Haha, for now it's the daily until I can get my main ride running good. But the thing tops out at like 50 so I can get around pretty goodLaughing

Love the OBS fords. Wish I could find one like yours in the red white color combo. Found one a few months ago with 300+ k miles and dude wanted almost 15k for it. Couldn’t justify it, but someone could because he sold it....

At that length, I'd say it's built like a land yacht Laughing

I'm not a Ford guy but it's still a nice truck.

This one has 400k on the chassis, 140k on the motor and 100k on the tranny. it's all stock minus exhaust and interior. People do get stupid money for these things. I picked mine up for a good deal about a year ago and redid the whole front end, glow plugs, and fuel lines. Next up on the list for next week is air filter, oil change, and fuel filters.

That wheel style was getting popular in that time, I wonder if the General Lee on the Dukes of Hazzard had any part in that?

Nice. Guy here was selling one( rare as in Australia, especially in the beach area I live at! ) which was dark blue and had a 460 with Lpg conversion. Wife said yes but I stalled. Much regret.

anyone that rides with me anywhere gets so pissed off that i have to park so far out in the parking lot!

Cruising on the highway at about 75 MPH it gets awesome fuel mileage.

Oh Man, she's purrty. I am SO CLOSE to pulling the trigger on that exact truck in dark grey.

3.5 Eco or 5.0?
