Not enough space for a stroller, had to walk in the middle of the street to go around the SUV.

I want Aussies to invade and force their utes on us. Basically still fill the function of a pickup for 95% of American pickup owners, but way smaller.
Too late. All our car companies folded so dickheads here are starting to buy Rams. The smallest utes you can buy here are the Hilux/Triton/Ranger/BT50 which are all about the same size and much bigger then the ones we used to make.
Welp, that's really disappointing. Once upon a time I thought the Holden Ute was pretty cool looking, and I liked stuff like the El Camino (dunno if y'all had those in Aus, but iirc they were discontinued in the US in the 80s).
I hate the weird "I wanna big car" thing in the US. I can understand wanting lots of footroom and feeling like you're in a tiny room instead of a car, but you don't need a massive pickup for that. If that's what you really want, buy a surplus humvee and take it somewhere to get a custom interior, new shocks fitted and maintenance done. It'll probably be more interior space than you'll know what to do with for half the cost of a brand new Ford, and it'll probably do off-road better as well. Bonus points if you replace the engine with a modern, more efficient diesel or do a full electric conversion. Imagine how much torque you could get out of an electric motor hooked up to a decent gearbox on that frame.
Holden is completely gone. GM pulled out of the RHD market entirely, so no more Holden, Vauxhall, or whatever they sold in Japan, SA, etc.
