AND NO, they are NOT utes. A genuine "ute" (correct name coupe utility) is a direct derivative of a family sedan from the same manufacturer.

Correct. Plus, they're car-sized and unibody.

How often do you see a semi truck trying to squeeze into parking spaces at ya local shop you tard?

Bring them on got for the environment should of been here years ago just make them cheap so we can all have one

That's a taste of American freedom for you Australians.

It is mandatory to have 'Truck Drivin' Man' by Lynyrd Skynyrd on your playlist, if you're going to drive trucks like these

Why should owners of previously classed light trucks be penalised when these newer vehicles are just the same if not bigger, heavier, tow more etc and not ordered to pay truck prices.

Parking spots must be smaller in Australia. I guess I can find parking lots here in the US where my massive (yes, I won't argue that they are HUGE vehicles) Ram 2500 is difficult to navigate in, but I've never been forced to park it somewhere it won't fit in the spot.

Yes they are smaller because they were never designed to accommodate these oversized POS truck

Just give them their own GVM weight class license like the progression for Car to Truck as these are essentially light trucks and some models even have 5th wheels

They do in the US. The 150/1500s are class 2B (6,601 to 8,500 lbs GVWR). Class 2B is 250/2500 and class 3 is 350/3500.

These trucks existed in Australia for years until aftee 1970s.

And Aussies think the Poms whinge.

it just makes sense that australians drive trucks just like americans

USA does not make RHD vehicles. These are all expensive local conversions. Cost too much for utilitarian purposes (like on a farm) so they pull big RVs or treated as "Urban Cowboy Dream Machines".

Nah they should make them narrower and put more narrow speed reducing chicanes. So that larger vehicles like this can get rim damage, alignment expense etc by not slowing down and driving with more care

Is this satire?

Anything that doesn't fit in an Australian Standard parking space, including a margin (for space between vehicles) should be rego'd and licenced as an oversize vehicle. They are not cars, and a car licence is not sufficient for all the safety and manoeuvrability reasons in the video. A motorbike needs a special licence, do does a truck. These are not cars and should not be treated as cars.

I agree. Also forgot about buses as well. Even though they r the same license as a truck, it's still not a car license

america has a total of like 2 roundabouts, plus getting rid of roundabouts is a terrible idea as theyre great for traffic flow

They really should have massive disincentives on these. Double the road Taxes. Taking up more road space Heavier and being more destructive on road surfaces Double the Insurance for easily having the potential to double the carnage on an accident and often abusing the law because they can (going over median strips, not slowing down on speed humps etc).

worst idea ive heard for a fat minute

Toyota landcruiser length 4980 width 1980 Ram 1500 length 5916 width 2474 ( including mirrors ). Difference in Length 936mm Difference in Width 494mm. I drive Trucks and am able to find parking when going to the shop for lunch. The car parking spaces are too small for Australian cars. Make the spaces bigger and normal car drivers will benefit by having reasonable sized car bays to park in.

Was this supposed to be funny?
