130116

Today I come to you with a heavy heart. I have just realized that I have found something so perfect, so beautiful, that it will forever be my dream. Sadly, however, I can never have it, because it simply lives too far away.

Ladies and gentlemen–who are not from Australia–may I introduce you to the Holden Commodore Ute…

It is the modern version of the El Camino (my first love), and they are everywhere in the land of Oz.

The SS comes with 375bhp and will do 0-60 in around 5 seconds. Oh, by the way, it’s an effing truck. What’s the old “large loads over long distances, and to do so quickly” adage? Yes, it’s the fittest vehicle on earth, and I can’t have it. I hate you GM, Holden, and anyone who is standing between me and this beautiful machine… Unless the rumors are true, then I love you.

  1. Who has both an SS ute and what looks like a Subaru WRX in the driveway? They must like their cars!

  2. I also share your love for this beautiful machine. The only thing that would top it for me would be a Jeep wrangler Truck. Then I could finally stop paying bills and live out of my car….while still Snatching 3 times a week of course.

  7. Just out of curiosity, what type of warm up do y’all recommend/how long should you warm up for?

  8. The boys and girls in New Zealand love the utes as well, but they are downright nuts the way they drive. You will be going around a blind corner in the middle of a rain storm and you see a sign indicating there is a 1 lane bridge. These old ass rickety 1 lane bridges are all over the place in NZ. The ute drives of NZ believe this means GO FASTER. You will be minding your own business and suddenly realize you are on a crash course with a ute going 100 miles an hour down a one way bridge. Awesome and scary at the same time. They tail-gate like motherfuckers there too.
