mick_gc Member 5 Member For: 11y 11m 25d Posted 21/05/13 12:32 PM Share Posted 21/05/13 12:32 PM Was just browsing the FG F6 Ute ads on carsales as im looking to sell mine and 1 ad mentioned that the 'F6 ute was never to be produced again'.Then looking on the FPV website, the only FPV ute is a GS V8So is that really it for the F6 ute? Haven't heard or seen anything on that!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently it's the F6 Ute, F6-E and GT-E that are being phased out in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick_gc Member 5 Member For: 11y 11m 25d Posted 22/05/13 04:57 AM Author Share Posted 22/05/13 04:57 AM Another sign is that there are hardly any brand new F6 Ute's in stock on carsales. What is there are 2012 builds as well, no 2013.Kinda sad really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe great for the tradies to wack on a tray, but not the sportiest design going. Leaf spring rear suspension went out with the horse and cart.Weather you like the Late model camira ute or not, its one piece construction, and IRS rear end, give it a more modern look, and decent ride and handling to boot.Not to mention quieter than the noisy Falcon ute(cab noise)Only my take on things. I have had 2 BA utes, and never had a Commy ute, so no real bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that there apparently not making any v8 utes apart from the gs's but didnt know anything about the f6..?Correct me if im wrong but Ford stopped the V8 production after the first year or 2 of the FG days,Meaning anyone wanting a XR8 sedan or ute will be looking at second hand ones or pasting the vasolene to buy a FPV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
