  1.  @na3044  We took your car, cut off the back passenger seat and back half of the cabin, put on a tabletop tray, and improved it a bit further by adding sides and rear tailgate, and the UTE was born in Australia! The purpose, for farmers to carry produce to the markets on Saturdays, and on Sundays go for a drive in the countryside! Who'd want to waste 2 hours in a useless old hall, listening to an idiot preaching utter bullshit?

  2.  @shepleonard8695  Nah, the Ute is Definitely Australian! America just cannot accept any other country outdoing them on anything. They always have to take credit, even if they have to steal it.

  3.  @shepleonard8695  Google can not always be relied on when it comes to history. The Very first Ute was built in Australia when a farmer cut off the rear passenger section of a Model-A Ford and replaced it with a tabletop tray so he could take his produce to market on Saturdays and go to social activities on Sundays. Ford Australia saw what the farmer had done and refined the idea to what became the first official Ute(utility). You Americans just hate it when another country comes up with an idea you lot didn't think of yourselves.

  4.  @simracingeverythin5832  Regardless of the brand(Holden, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota, etc.) and regardless of size, up to a point, they are ALL Utes!(Ute = shortform word meaning Utility Vehicle). The first "Ute" was created by an Australian farmer in the 1920s because he needed something to take produce to market on Saturdays and take his wife and family to church on Sundays(the latter being a waste of time as they could've been out, enjoying the natural world on a Sunday drive).

  5.  @johnnymason2460  I suppose you think the world is only 6,000 years old. The Aboriginals of Australia were here for 65 thousand years, MINIMUM! Evolution IS INDEED FACT! And god is a figment of primitive imagination, nothing more!

  7. @Ed's Auto Reviews As you are Dutch, not American, pleeeeaaaasssseeee use the correct name for the fuel, "PETROL"!

  8.  @sandervanderkammen9230  "Petrol" is a Generic name for the product. There is NO attachment to any specific brand.

  9. 2:00 Better to be boring to look at yet have substance than to look fancy and have no substance! That's the entire problem with the American auto industry, ostentatious design with virtually NO consideration for substance! Substance being safety, fuel economy(how many MPG on a tank of petrol), etc.)

  10. I don't think I'd want a Mercedes, not a "straight" one among them! They've all got Benz (bends) in them! LOL

  11. You should NOT use the word "edition" as that word applies ONLY to media, print, audio or video. The word DOES NOT IN ANY WAY apply to ANYTHING mechanical.

  12. I wish you'd AVOID using yank terms for car parts or fuel. Car parts: Not "hood" but Bonnet! Not "trunk" but Boot! Fuel: Not "gas" but Petrol!

  13. The "Ute" is indeed an Aussie invention! The Yanks would never have come up with this idea on their own! The concept is simple, a comfortable cabin and a tray at the back. The idea, to take sheep or hay, or other produce to market on a Saturday, and on Sunday, go for a drive in the country(let's not waste precious time listening to fuckwit preachers spewing out their religious rubbish dogma).

  14.  @nickrustyson8124  Trucks, or "Lorries" as they're correctly called, were much larger vehicles built on what would be an omnibus chassis. Utes are built basically on a smaller sedan chassis, and it was the Australian arm of Ford which invented the "Ute" and put it into fulltime production.

  15.  @nickrustyson8124  I'm referring to the same, but as Australia invented the vehicle type, then Australia gets to name it.. America just wants to steal the credit for other countries' inventions.

  16.  @nickrustyson8124  It is a UTE, It was invented in Australia! Even if America doesn't "take the credit" for the ute's invention, America always assumes to know better than every other country and wants to change the names of things to suit themselves. This is part of America's arrogance and conceit!

  17. 1:13 The new millenium and the 21st Century started on 1st January, 2001! The year 2000 was the last, and defining year of the 20th Century.

  18. 13 Miles Per Gallon? (6:53) That's UTTERLY DISGUSTING as regular cars could get at least 25 MPG. And the Metric measurement should echo the imperial - Kilometres Per Litre! (Distance travelled per unit of fuel used).

  19. Chrysler stood on its own four TYRES! Tire is a verb, meaning to physically and/or mentally exhaust oneself while TYRE is the noun describing the rubber outer part of a vehicle's wheel.

  20.  @Onizukachan915  American English is NOT the default international English. British English is the STANDARD for the language! Thus TYRE is the rubber rim of a vehicle's wheel while TIRE is the verb meaning to mentally and/or physically exhaust oneself. American English is an arrogant corruption of the language inherited from England.

  21. Yep! America pushes style over substance and totally ignores the impracticality of their cars that they attempt to export to other countries.

  22. I see your reflection in the bodywork of this stupid, ugly looking Chrysler PT Cruiser(6:32) and I'd say one thing: Get yourself a PROPER video camera! You'll be able to do a lot more in the way you shoot video than what a mobile phone's camera can do!

  23. You're forgetting.....GM had Holden here in Australia, and we Aussies believed strongly in Substance Over Style which meant "performance and safety overruled fancy looks". That's why Australian-built cars were superior to their poor cousins from America!
