There's alot that's specific to these beasts, and I know myself and others have a lot of questions regarding them, and answers too

Thanks.

Yep, I agree... Plenty of knowledge out there, would probably also attract more F-truck types to the site... I haven't found a resource as good as AFF for Ford trucks yet...

Another keen Effy owner here, have been mucking about with these trucks for a few years now, so I got a bit to share!

I think it's a good idea.

The Passenger Car area could do with some further consolidation.

My thoughts;
  • Falcons, Performance and Small_&_Mid Sized all OK as they are with their subcategories.
  • Have a SUV and similar heading with subcategories for Territory, Escape, Explorer and Others.
  • Have a Utes, Trucks & Panno's heading with subcategories Falcons, Ranger & Courier, F-Trucks and Others.
  • Change the American Ford heading to be Other Imports with Mustang and Other subcategories.

Or alternatively have Mustangs under Performance which in Australia they mostly are.
