Edit: Apparently Ford Australia paused taking orders for Transit Heavy in November 2022. https://www.drive.com.au/news/2023-f...sed-australia/ Last edited by Dr Smith; 06-03-2023 at 05:49 PM. |

And for $32,000 (what was paid for this particular one) there’s not much else out there that can do what it can. |

There is a 5 Door Jimny coming, but to me it seems unfortunate that it will be heavier and still have the same engine and gear box.
My tip is that the Tank300 when it arrives in petrol form will become the new Jimny as far as a budget off roader goes.

Many years ago I got stuck in Cunnamulla for a day until the dirt road (Blacksoil) dried out and we were picking on one of the local lads who had one. He talked me into going for ride. It was horribly basic and rough then to my horror he turned into a very wet paddock. Then he stopped in the middle and laughed at the look on my face, put it back into gear did a U turn and drove out without a problem. Seems all the cockies out there loved them, they're so light that they're really hard to get bogged and the only thing stopping them from going up steep hills on properties is when they fall over backwards

The E-Transit is seemingly taking forever. Looks like April is the on sale date though. But as with anything out of Europe, they get priority, and Transit is a massive seller over there. Not sure what is going on atm, and whether we will actually get good supply or not. |
