And it is a pretty safe bet that you live in the middle of a big city and have no idea about the conditions of the roads in regional areas.

As stated many many times this is not about the middle of the Simpson Desert nor is it about a sedan based on the RTV, if you had actually read the thread you should have understood this.

It is about configuring a Falcon to be a bit more suitable for use on the badly maintained rough bitumen roads that are covered with potholes and other damage e.g. the Bruce Hwy between Cooroy and Cairns as well and almost every other arterial and connecting road in QLD.
