I don't know what you were reading but it was 3 people who had just been sacked. Had nothing to do with management.

Are you sure you aren't from Drive with that made up dribble.

I can post the article if you want to deny it.

The jacked up Utes are more popular now then the local utes as you can get duel cab versions and they can go more places then the locals. Its funny that the RTV was supposedly cut not to impose on the Ranger. But now they cannot supply enough Rangers. I would like to see an RTV style Falcon ute back. It wouldn't even need a diff lock, just get it to the same height, LSD and get the traction setup for more offroad stuff. Call it a tradesman. Might breath some life in the ute and cause some overtime at Broady.
Tradies loved the RTV... especially the ones that didn't go off road, like sparkies and such. Those cool three door canopy things, that were like giant tool boxes, Fantastic.
