Utes

The following photos are a collection of my sightings of "Utes" yesterday.





These vehicles have been around in this corner of the world ever since, and maybe even before, the El Camino reared its ugly head and then died a sudden but timely death. The reason they have stuck around over here is a good one though. They are much more fuel efficient than the pickups everyone drives around in the U.S. Since petrol is so expensive over here they've actually sacrificed something to conserve fuel. It's pretty amazing, and I commend them for it, even if I don't agree with the aesthetic outcome.
