    Angry I own a 4B and I own a truck F500. Why do we confuse them?

    How have we come to confuse a 4B for a truck. Soon the road authorities will be enforcing new license and rego rules if don't start calling our units what they are. Or maybe I'm just out there with my wild thoughts.

    This should get some replies.

    This subject has had the chit flogged out of it so many times now???? My 4x4s a Mav & I call it the Mav but I have nor hold any disrespect for those of us 4x4 owners who refer to there 4x4s as truck or Rigs... Frankly I think there tough enough to have earned the right to be referred to as just that. Trucks or Rigs


    Cheers

    Have a look at http://www.macktrucks.com.au/
    as it states " Welcome to the official Australian website of Mack TRUCKS"

    To cut the story short - you call your F500 whatever you like but don't have a go at people for calling their 4wd TRUCKS...each to their own.

    Cheers
