Too late now. And by the sounds of it Ford US wanted to go global with all models so the Falcon was gonna be bumped either way... |

Anyway you don't get much lower clearance than a Mini van and I never got stuck! Or ruined. Or lost plastic pieces. But I wouldn't buy a "sports" model with a front spoiler for the farm either, but let's not spoil the argument. Back to topic - AWD Territory = good rural car ![]() |

My guess is most rental cars are vic registered, and lots of them are territories

Done a few cars for the ADF at work and they have Land Cruisers, Kluger, Camry etc, and 4x4 Hilux etc in vehicles which only see a dirt paddock if they're lucky.
They could have AWD Diesel Territories instead. |

I bet Blackwoods in Wodonga get a few NSW customers too from just over the Border[/QUOTE]
All along the Murray the main towns are on the Vic side, Yarrawonga, Cobram, Echuca, Swanhill, Mildura so southern NSW buyers may get put in with the Vic numbers. Pete |

I think it because Victorians know they cant drive and cant afford an Abrahams M1,
so they downsize to something more affordable... ![]()

Pete[/QUOTE] Didn't somebody say on the first page that it goes Off the number of registrations rather than sales? Which means the southern NSW buyers wouldn't count as they would be registering there cars in NSW.

Stamp duty and on road costs are lower from memory thats why alot of hire cars in other states are regoed in VIC, not a big deal for one car but if you buy 1000 per year it ads up. This will warp the figures, i know nearly heaps of the hire cars in SA are all VIC rego

I'm currently in Melbourne and every bloody second car is either a Territory or Falcon. Mind you 3/4 of those are the lovely pale yellow taxis.
Melbourne taxi companies are going to be stuffed after 2016. (On a side note this is my first time to Melbourne and I have to say it ***** all over Sydney!) |
