Bob12345 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Who needs an agricultural pickup? Better get one with some racing stripes and show it before a movie in the movie theatres as a sound test. Lots of dirt flying up, loud sounds, flasy stripes... YEAH!

It's a no frills, mostly 2 wheel-drive, manual pickup, not a Wildtrak or a Raptor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestB Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Ford has really picked up its game while Toyota and Isuzu just doing the same thing year after year. Was never a fan of ford but last month while shopping for a truck ended up buying a wildtrack. Was the most comfortable ride out of the available lot.

inThailand Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 These are new models in order to get rid of the stockpile of old 2.2 engines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawadee1947 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Good choice. I was waiting long time already for this car. God heard my prayers. I will order that immediately. And then......driving full speed power sliding round my frangipani, heading to the jackfruit, and then around the starfruit tree over to the Pomelo. Wow, what an adventure. Oh, hack, now I ran over my coffee plants.... ???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly likely since farmers probably aren't too bothered about the newer bi-turbo motors. 20 hours ago, jackdd said: I don't know about Ford, but Toyota sells pickups like this: Adding a platform as seen on your picture should not be a big deal. Yes, they are available in Thailand as well. I recall seeing one on the Pattaya railroad/bypass a few years ago. 20 hours ago, geoffbezoz said: Which country are they available in ? That picture is from Australia where the dropside flatbed is the standard for cockies. As mentioned above, there are third-party fabricators of these beds in Thailand. I think yhe only pickup that comes with this sort of tray as standard in Thailand is the Tata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
