Also, something to keep in mind when looking at it's interior for example, Ford insisted on competing with Holden's V8's with their own V8 models in marketing, and didn't push their turbo cars as the V8 competitors they truly were. People even saying Ford said the turbo power outputs were lower than they actually were, to make their V8 models look better for sales.

Both great but if I had to choose , the blue blood flowing through my veins would see the F6 parked in the driveway . At least with the leaf springs it could actually be used as a ute far more readily than coils in the Maloo.. The proper work utes that Ford built always had leaf springs for that reason I believe ...

the leaf springs are actually more useful if you are hauling heavy loads. a mate of mine put 3 dirt bikes in the back of his VZ ute, the rear end sagged. that would not have happened with leaf springs. thats why the falcon ute is all round more practical, you got the barra which can do INSANE amounts of horsepower, and you got that increased load capacity, also a lot of fun to drive as a daily, no matter what variant you drive, NA, turbo or F6. dont get me wrong, the maloo is a lot of fun to drive, an ex girlfriend of mine, her brother had one, let me take it for a spin, it was a blast. but i dont like all the extra bells n whistles, they would be distracting to a less experienced driver. and as for me personally, i personally believe that less is more.

Hi Ross, Great review was a joy to watch. Such a shame both are no longer in production. Something missed 🙂- some safety issues - the Maloo has poor driver visibility particularly with looking over your shoulder and to the rear where as the f6 is good and the Maloo has smaller side mirrors with reduced visibility 🙂. The F6 scores better on driver visibility🙂. Either way they are both fantastic pieces of machine.

Great comparison, Ross. I have an '08' XR8 ute and a '2010' SV6 sedan. Both with less than 100,000ks on the clock. My ute sounds every bit as good as the Maloo. I prefer to drive the SV6 on a trip, and I guess it's because a sedan is that little bit more comfortable. I take the V8 ute for a Saturday night in town or a weekend cruise. I can't compare them like you just did, as one is a ute. But, I also have a '07' V8 S4 Audi, and to be honest, I'd choose the Audi any day, over either Holden or the Ford.

So buying either will be pretty expensive, but they will continue to increase in price. Of course, selling a collectable car is not as easy as it might sound, so you might find someone that needs the money in a hurry.

Absolutely gotta respect both

The Maloo doesn't just have coil springs in the rear it has a complete independent rear suspension system against the live axle in the FPV.

you know what i mean.. coil vs leaf

love my Holden's to death but theres no denying that barra is crazy

I have a VE Maloo and an FPV GT-P with a blower on it. Does that mean I'm winning? For the record, yes the auto in the Maloo is just too slushy and confused compared to the scalpel feel of the ZF in the GT-P. The GT-P feels sharper and more direct to drive than the Maloo too, but the Maloo has the nicer seating position.

Holden trans have always been slushy.Lost count on how many GMH boys think my cars have shift kits fitted especially in the older stuff.

The HSV's were actually build in Elizabeth SA then fitted out in vic, but anyway.

I love the f6 but that Holden is a beast

they do look mint

the best thing about these utes as in auto is pulling gears, rather than pushing like every other car brand.

Ones a grunty car with a ute body the other is a grunty commerical vehicle. God I miss them. Have owned many brands and really dont care theres good and not so good models of both brands going to back to when the legends started. The V8 ute was the Aussie sports car.
