I would say many people would be in Ouzo's position, but then many people also buy Battlecruisers thinking they are going to take half their house and the dog through Kakadu. From the significant number of rwd Terri buyers it seems many people realistically assess what they need too, and most people don't "need" all wheel drive, it is as simple as that. Not to mention the way the Falcon wagon is geared so heavily towards fleet use with leaf springs, and the interior flexibility of the Terri and no wonder it is attractive as the family truckster.

So true, as a BA Futura wagon owner the T only lags in cargo area space but makes up for it a little with greater height. I'm still amazed how a T rear seat with child safety seat fitted in the centre position still kept my daughters feet over 20cm away from the front seats backs while in our BA wagon she rests her shoes "beautifully" on the velour trim, kicking/pushing all the way. And the T is quite a bit shorter then a BA wagon as well.
