It's not terrible--just needs someone with taste to mid it! Not him tho!!

Nice car but I am a purist when it comes to wheels on old Mopar cars. Those detract from it for me

Honestly, they look like shit..!

I don't know why people do it.

Finally got all angles. Looks to have been a VW Beetle that someone chopped the rear and grafted a pickup bed on. Don't know what or where the motor is.

Love the pics of the Aussie iron. Lots of diesels there. Is diesel fuel cheaper? Or just more economical?

Slightly higher per litre and much discussion about economical vs petrol more fill ups vs diesel burn contributing to environmental impact.

A lot of diesels in nearly all models of cars and utes.

Here are some pics from NSW Fuel Check app which is equivalent to Gas Buddy in USA.

LPG is even lower price.

We have been running E10 in dad’s Mazda CX-9.
Thirsty 3.7L V6 but comfortable with nearly all options.

They have a newer model 2.4L turbo petrol that is supposed to be more efficient. Lot of turbos here too.
