F-Series

[Elks]

Just a thought I'd like to throw out there.

Why don;t we get the F-150 / F-250 Super duty here in Australia?

F-series were sold here in Oz from there introduction as F1 in the late fourties, with the last of the F's being F250's sold 2002/2003. When the dollar was at $0.60c

Now if you look at the prices that these bring $50K+ is the norm for a 10 year old 200,000km reasonably tidy unit. The price of used ones proves demand.

Now with an F250 King Ranch dual cab with 8 foot bed, 6.7 diesel, 6 speed auto, 4x4 hamburger with the lot costing RETAIL just under $60k and a 4x2 petrol other wise same back at just under $48k. Sure it would cost a bomb to to a RHD version, but add $20K, (the price of a Focus) to those RRP's and you would still have demand.

It would be in line with the One Ford policy, so why is this much loved for icon not on our shopping list? I know I'd get one.

Some gratuitous pics for you..
