with ford brining the new F150 (and only the F150 from what i've heard) in, the two companys that are currently doing the conversions will be doing second hand importations, which will be rather interesting on the market.

How come they've changed their mind?

they got a little upset when they realized that they had made a mistake thinking there wasnt a market for the larger ford ute's/trucks.
meanwhile the two companys that are doing the importing and conversion's have been making a killing on Ford's behalf.

as far as i know Ford are only bringing in the 150's not the 250-550 models, altough they will still have their Brazillian models available.

it's going to be rather interesting though, because, with Ford bringing brand new trucks in, the two company are not able to, there for due to changes within australia's importing and reg rules and such, the two companys that were doing the new trucks are now going to be doing second hand trucks under RAWS, so there is going to be quite a large market on the 150's as of next year.

I hope it is in addition to, and NOT REPLACING the F250/350 superduties? Bring on the 6L Turbo Diesel F250 (and twin turbo 6.4 Common Rail Diesel V8 in 2007)
