In previous threads it's been discussed/argued about which is better, sedans or utes. So it was with great intrest that i read in the latest Performance Ford mag the interview with Ross an Jimmy Stone and their two drivers Russell and Marcos.
Now we would all agree that Russell and Marcos are two of the better drivers goin around at the moment in the V8 supercar series, and they both state that their favorite EVER Ford are UTES!!!!
Russell's is his BA XR8 UTE, and Marcos's is his 2003 F250.
Ya can't get a better endorsment for the quality and the class of the utes when both of these fella's drive around in HANDMADE $300,000 dollar sedans!!

Good news but it looks like you've got some hard decisions to make. You might want to read the Madder Mag comparo on the stands yesterday, forget the 8 ot the T, it seems the XL Cab-Chassis is the go!

Hmm, i was checkin out one at the dealers the other day, such class an prestige to go along with stunning good looks and muscular stance. Having the option of a awesome fire-breathing e-gas engine under the bonnet sends shivers down my spine!
I've been laying awake at night ever since thinking wether i really need the lairy bodykit of the XR's the big alloy's or the rumbling V8 sound emanating from under the beast.
Or i could have the silky smoothness eco-friendly e-gas, the unclutterd lines of the XL cab-chassis and the pot-hole loving, kerb climbing one-tonne alloys!
What was i thinking, BRB i'm of to order a white e-gas one-tonner with no extra's at all!!

And every time you see an XR8 going by with the V8 rumbling sound emanating from under the beast you will kick yourself again and again for not getting what you really wanted and knowing that what you have bought is really what you could afford, I speak from experience and I'm sure many others will tell you the same thing.
