So, does that mean there will be no Holden and no Toyota after 2017?

Yep I can drive an F series on a car licence, I can also drive a vehicle up to 4.5 tonnes so that includes the likes of Mitsubishi Canters which are clearly trucks so that brings me back to my definition of a truck, ie a vehicle designed to transport goods

I mean at the end of the day, if Ford want to call it a truck, they can call it a truck

They did design and make the thing after all. Who is anyone to disagree?

its not that big of a deal

So you'll never buy a car built after 2017 for the rest of your life? Serious question.

The Falcon would not have been an orphan if Dearborn supported it.

One Ford? More like "Ford minus One" more loyal buyer - namely me!
