Dunno about you John.
But apart from it being a Holden.

Skinny inside cab space. Higher rev's for same torque,
and plastic bits hanging lower than others. Just glancing through it.

They need to go back and change a few things to get in the market it seems.
Can't see it being much better (if any) than modern D-Max, Mitzi, or Toyota.
and they only mid range of market.
It's certainly not a mid market price.

Let's just hope they DO manage to get it together hey.
Just to keep an Australian MFG'd vehicle on the market.

 No NbN here ... only 115/1.8 on my Telstra fast cable .....   Less than over whelming report on the new improved Collie.

It's not an Aussie built car, it's an Asian buzz box with a Lion badge on it.
