Sounds like a good move to me. I wonder if Ford will respond? I can imagine all those folks who want a V8 4 door but the boss won't let them now being able to say, get this for me and theres NO FBT, cause it's a ute. A neat canopy and it would not look much different to a station wagon. I wonder what the suspension setup is? Coming Mid-SeptemberGet out there and perform with the Crewman SS. One drive of this high-performance sports machine and you'll realise you not only own the road, you dominate every square inch of it. Size counts, and this massive beast has all you need to make one hell of a big impression.RRP from $46,140*+ on-road costs* Overview • 225kW 5.7 litre Generation III V8 engine • Side impact airbags • 17" alloy wheels • Full lower body kit and foglamps • Sports seats with embroidered SS motifThe power rating is a bit disapointing Why not the 245kw the sedan gets?

If that's the case there will be plenty at the panelbeaters because some of the young GD Coppers will get their ambition confused with their ability!

Doesn't mind giving up a 4X4 to see what sedan comfort with a ute would be like. As with any new model it is a bit of a gamble fleet wise, but it might be worth it to try one out.
