@jlm6180 Strangely, Australia has the same Japanese utes on the streets that you would see anywhere in America; the chief difference would be that Holden and Ford Australia created them as dual use vehicles. Most of the early utes had panelvan versions as well; a ute with a fullsized roof over the whole cabin and tray. Australia invented the concept, so we're loathe to kill them off. To see what Ford has competing against it, look up "FG Series Falcon ute"
why would thay do that ? it pisses them off that we australians can build a better cheaper sedans wagons and utes with rear wheel drive,, lol.. thay hate that ! so funny i think!
But u see thats not the point of this Holden VE ute (Pontiac sportstruck).
The point of this ute/sportstruck is that it can be a workhorse/pickup and when the weekend (or freetime) comes u can hit the track do some sweet drifts, max the speedo as u floor it down the front straight, and then some time LATER come out with some BOLD TIRES and a huge SMILE on your face.
in Australia some ppl clasify this as an unofficial sports car, as some ppl buy it because its a 2 seater with a BIG BOOT.
Don't really like the sports car/pickup combination. Looks a bit silly. Sports cars should look like sports cars and pickups should look like pickups!

You yanks aint got no clue..
that's Holden VE ute... Their all owned by general motors, their pretty much the fucking same.
Who cares what you idiots think you look like, the VE Maloo R8 is the world's fastest Ute/Pick up truck. It's been proven.
