ANd they had a nissan badged ford 2wd ute. at the same time
i might put ford badges on my GU![]()
I used to cruise... NOW I PATROL!
It would be one of a kind. I was lucky my old mav didn't have any ford badges on it. It didn't even have nissan badges, it must have been confused and lost its identity.
They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.
Here is some reading material as to why this is so.

And if you go to a ford dealership for parts they tell you to go to a nissan dealership.
When i had one, my toyota owning mate's would say" bloody nissan", i would say"its not a nissan its a ford".
Then they would say "Bloody fords",My comment then"well it's not really a ford more a nissan".
Would win that argument everytime.
A GOOD MATE WILL BAIL YOU OUT OF JAIL, A BEST MATE WILL BE SITTING NEXT TO YOU SAYING YEP WE F**KED UP
