If they put a bigger tank in, you wouldn't see it at the back I don't think. It could be a fake tank though which given the reception stripes get, I hope not. Maybe it's something else.

Gee guys! Didn't realise this post gets around 360,000 views! If i'm correct then this will be the ultimate way on how to get the word of the 2014 Falcon out there for sure!

It wont have a larger tank.
Falcons all have the tank infront of the rear axle (its been a safety requirement for some time now). The car spyman is talking about is one of FPR's test mules.

This will be just your run-of-the-mill ED-EF update.
Can't believe some here think it's going to be "All new" etc. Even the vent tabs date back to BA.

I'm really looking forward to when the new model is released.
Not because I want to see what it looks like, but because of all the "I told you so's" that will be flying around on here

I think spyman was referring to the boot, obviously the rear floor couldn't be flat..................
Unless the new model is front wheel drive....Hmm

Hey,
There was a Gt-f mule and as there has not been a FH testing now for 7weeks,it just come up on me at short notice, I was focusing on a LHD fusion/Turass mule being bench marked here with a red Turass, and by the time I saw it,it just flicked out of view to shoot but I could see it had the insert btw mufflers removed and it looked like an older style drop box tank in their it also had a roll cage too only did one lap,there was something there..???

Do you think it looks noticeably quicker off the line compared to the r-spec, looking forward to some video footage and/or pics of it

I have said before the Falcon needs a bigger fuel tank..because if the distance we travel. The XC had an option for a bigger fuel tank..
