What model is mu GU

[MudRunnerTD]

is it not how you differentiate between styles of utes, i.e. well body, tray etc etc etc

I would call a Well Body a Style Side. Generally i just call them Utes. But certainly use the terms CoilCab and Leafy Ute. Tray back works fine too though.

Sprock's a top bloke honestly!! Definitely meant no wrong with the WA thingy :-) We're trying to con him into Evo's west adventure, he's a fun loving trucker and one of the winding HC's best, worth meeting F2F :-) !!

It's a Trayback not a Wagon so will be Series 2.

Cab Chassis Series 1 is 99 till 03
Cab Chassis Series 2 is 03 till 07 (or 06 depending)

This was such a strange thing Nissan did here? I remember having this convo with @Cuppa a few years ago about his Ute which is clearly a Series 1, 2 or 3 but is a 2007. In the Wagon the GUIV shape (Current shape) was adopted in late 2004 but the Ute stayed the same until 2007 until the CRD was introduced i think? Not sure the ZD30Di went into the VI Ute did it?

It's all bananas to me now Daz!
Licola, blokes told me 2005 was the last of the 4.2's, mates over the border tell me 2006 sometime ?
Thankfully Yanky diesel steel fits in these buggers so let's call em.....?

My understanding is that my 4.2 2006 ute (cab chassis) is the last of the breed. That’s going by build date on the compliance plate which I think is August 2006. Quite possible of course that some were not sold or registered until 2007.

I’ve never been 100% certain whether it’s a Mk 2 or Mk 3, but think it’s a Mk 2.

Some even call them table tops,
but a well back has a factory tub not sure if Nissan had any in the Patrol range

Yep, at August '06 it would have been one of the last ones.
and
Yep, yours is a Series 2, Series II, Mark 2, Mark II, Ute, Tray back, Cab Chassis, Podder, Bakkie (just go with whatever floats ya boat) :-)

Who even says 'tray back' @mudski ? Must be a WA thing �� Sorry ET I've never met ya so feel free to tell me to f&%k off ��

Hiya Cobber...

I call mine a Ute (Uterus actually) but edited my post so it read the same as the OP.
Only exception is if I am talking spare parts or accessories then I call it a Cab Chassis.
Then again, I am a New South Welshman/Territorian.
I am only in W.A. hiding out till 'they' give up looking for me.
