This is what I'm about. Love these things. Ford or Holden don't care, they're all brilliant, even if the live-axle Fords get a bit lively at times.My old ute used to drive very nicely. View attachment 375104

Would suggest that the US is a lot more like us the way most cities and streets work and you'll find a lot (of much bigger) utes there.Utes don't even exist in any great numbers in most other countries. Europe, vans are the thing.
Which brand and which car out of interest?Having personally seen the result of their sister brands NCAP test I wouldn't go anywhere near one!

Need a 6m 610 UB 125 on the racks.
Cheap for a reason. Because they're absolute heaps of shit.
That's a great wall steed, nothing like the Cannon Ute. That said it doesn't have an Ancap test result yet.

I loved my XG panel van with barn doors. Until some prick peeled the rubber from the side window, popped the glass and used a stick to open the door from the inside latch. Lucky it was alarmed as it would have been a pricy night that one.More vans with "barn" doors especially, not like all the stupid lift-back ones that prevent you from getting stuff in and out with a forklift.
Great Wall make the Cannon ute...That's a great wall steed, nothing like the Cannon Ute. That said it doesn't have an Ancap test result yet.
We need an unlike button. On topic..... wtf....Sorry to go on topic here and actually contribute to the actual question.
Consider also what else he might want to use the Ute for - a drop on tray / work box that can be removed and leave you with the tray is handy if you need to come times use it to carry other stuff - if you will only ever use it as a work try get one fabricated to do exactly what you need - will be more expensive but will pay for itself with ease of use. Also consider if he is toting tools etc in it - most insurance companies will have specific criteria to cover you for the tools themselves like the way they lock and bolt on. Can’t help with actual companies but I have a 3M professional tray and love how it’s configured as a tray
Could use the angry face I guess - sorry for the grammar and spelling in my last post off my tits on painkillers right nowWe need an unlike button. On topic..... wtf....

And a Ute version as well. For utes that get used for actual work… VW (and Renault etc) cab chassis as well as the vans are the norm in Europe.I’ve run a Vw van for the past 10 years after previously working out of utes. Single & double cab hiluxes then a Ford 1 tonner with a full Tip-Top box and tray setup for a while before getting the van. Fit heaps more in, can walk through and work or get gear in all weather. Racks are a little higher than the utes of course but easily manageable. All the gear is safe and out of sight. I wouldn’t go back to a Ute.... in fact I bought a crafter this year and it fits even more in and drives very nice.
Small van I have 3 seats up front and a removable bench in the rear, more than enough for the family if needed with proper legroom. Dual cab was balls for space.
Crafter only has 2 seats but can get 3.
Both can also be had in 4wd if required, although the transporter is FWD and has traversed from guthega to smiggins in the snow on the old back access road. Not beaches though. Leave that to the proper 4wds.

Mine tips the scales at 2.7t with just my tools and equipment on board. Last week I loaded the tray between the toolboxes with 1/4m of packing sand. Week before I had a busted hotty leaking rusty water in there twice. I regularly have to drop used waste pipes in there and other gross things. Working in the dandenongs, 4wd is near essential over winter with all the steep unsealed driveways and slippy front yards I need to park in.Dual cab utes are becoming more common, but no one uses them for work, they’re all fashion accessories.
