Here's another video from Big Truck Big RV. Looks like the Ranger will have a Electronic Locker and a FX4 package.

Driving an 89 ranger daily now. Will have to check out the new one when they come in.

We're looking at getting one to replace our 2011 in a few years...the 2011 has been a great truck even being a low capacity truck.

I said imported into Australia and available in Australia.? They all are including the RAM Pickups which are converted by AVECO. How come you listed the Honda Ridgeline as. a Pickup? That is a Coupe Utility , you have less choices and you know it is FALSE to claim otherwise. It is also FALSE AS WELL to say you can US Pickups straight from the Factory

Lol, I love getting you all flustered.

Your quotes 9nly backed up what I stated that the only US trucks you guys get from its respective brand with a warranty and not from some third party is a Ram 1500 and a Ram 2500.

Oh, and the Ridgeline is based off an SUV, not a coupe. However, I put an asterisk next to on the list be abuse some don't see it as a truck a truck. Take it off if you want. It still won't change the fact that we have more pick up truck offerings here that are not conversions.

FALSE. ALL HD Pickups are conversions.including the RAM.That is beside the point, we get ALL US HD Trucks in Australia. You said you did not include Utes so why the Honda Pilot with a bed??? Pretty scratchy list so far , looks like the Ranger maybe what you want

Nope, you can't get the HDs from the factory as you can see in the links provided.

You have to get them through a third party conversion company just like I can get a Amarok, Hilux, or whatever else I want from south America if I pay to convert to our safety and emissions standards. So if you are counting high priced conversions, we have access to the same trucks you do and then some.

Sorry, but you don't have as many pickup truck choices as we do here and saying that you do is flat out false.

We provide more than just right hand drive vehicles designed and tuned to tow big loads across our big country, we employ top local engineers, designers and automotive technicians, as well as local component companies to work with us.

A limited listing. Yes there are more choices in Australia. Remember noone gives a dam about 1/2 tons here we get all the US HD's

Nope, false. The only HD truck you get from the factory is a Ram 2500.

Ram Australia

No HD truck here

Holden Australia

or here

Ford Australia

All the rest are conversions. If you want to start adding conversions to the list, then that will make my list from my ealrier post longer since there are companies here that will convert many of the same global trucks you guys have from south America. So I doubt you want to go there.
