Post by: 2006YFZ450 on October 30, 2005, 06:27:27 AM
I last year I went to Australia and stopped at some Ford dealers.  I could not beleive my eyes I saw a F-350 Crew Cab 4X2 XLT for $84,000 without a bed.  Here's the site for Ford in Aussie land.

The shipping doesn't really hurt but the conversion does.  remeber they drive on the other side of the road.

That's still alot. Remeber you have to put a flat bed or bed on the truck and that's $2,000+  And the Gas in Australia is $3.75 a gallon.

Yea those Falcons are awsome but I like the XR8 the best.  Check out the site and look for pickups they look similar to an El Camino.  This guy bought one and it was wicked  fast.  All I know it went from 0-100kph in 4.5 sec.  I think their called Falcon Cammodor.

Went downunder in the early 90's. Loved the exchange rate we got for US currency. The women there were pretty awesome too, they knew how to treat a sailor right.

yep! took the words right out of my mouth!

currenty, if you went to Australia with  $1.33 USD they would give you $.75 Australia dollars...... so that outs that truck roughly the same as the US version..
