Perhaps only from the outside looking in...

But what’s more dangerous? A person equipped with a manual Mustang or that same person equipped with an automatic Mustang?

Yeti want to see more

Practice lap at Mount Panorama, Bathurst on a GSX1100...onboard camera in 1981!!

Even HSV have indicated they are looking to play with the Insignia...and given Holden is almost certainly going to take an Insignia wagon, there’ll be a performance version of it.

A Chinese made 4x4 dual cab ute...like this one

That gives me an idea...but I think I start with a Suzuki Sierra A.K.A. Samuari instead of a Wrangler.

Not really. It’s only worth talking about (from Jeep’s perspective) if there’s the margin to support it...follow the money.

If the manual gearbox only accounts for 10 to 20% of sales then why would you talk about it in the first place?

You forgot about the pickup version that us Aussies have been told is coming with this iteration...

Mmmm...Fuso Canter. Funnily enough distributed by Daimler in Oz

The suspension can be fixed to a certain extent with parabolic springs. And the stock seating is usually binned for a decent suspension seat from Stratos/KAB...but yes there are still some compromises in the cab-over design which is why the new breed of Euro trucks like Iveco Daily and M-B Sprinter are biting into…

Errr...you can get them stock like that...
