Ford F250 Trucks

The ford F250 and F150 trucks, one of the worlds most unique vehicles.

Ford since 1948 have been on a huge winner throughout most of the world with this peak performing multi purpose vehicles

Manufactured mainly in the USA in a left hand drive configuration we must not forget that in Brazil for a few years  this vehicle has been manufactured in a right hand drive version.

The recipients of the RHD version mainly has been Australia,South Africa and South America.

The Australian market is one of complexitities , firstly fuel costs (AS At  May 2009 100-120 aust cents per litre.(fuel prices are now moderating), vast distances , many off road applications and urban lifestyle.

 

Popular in Australia is the ford f250 super cab and crew cab 4x4 7.3 XLT models. Top of the range  as Australia did not import via ford the lariat.

For specs and all information relating to Australian F250s visit http://www.f250sales.com.au 

Buyers of these trucks in Australia just like the rest of the world are  Tradespeople whom carry large amouts of equipment with them, retiree wishing for long distance touring with a large  caravan or fifth wheel and the Ford f250 fanatic whom just wants one.

Country areas are hugely popular with these vehicles as urban usage can be resrictive  because of size and manouverability.

Four wheel drives also are very popular in Australia and in recent years the enthusiast  has taken some of the market away from the traditional purpose user of these vehicles See http://www.just4x4sales.com.au .

High resales are important and providing you know when to buy and sell your Ford F250 minimal loss can occur in depreciation.

Be warned that Ford Australia no longer  bring these vehicles in new (since 2006) although it is hoped that they will return back to the market place.

Ford F550 Hybrid 

Now 70% better fuel economy.

Thanks to some great minds and the unveiling from president Obama For f550 sales could go through the roof if fuel economy is the reason to buy a hybrid truck.

Ford have increased sales of the F550 and its proving to be a good steady seller.Thanks to Ricardo global products it will most likely increase in popularity.
Here is a portion of a recent press release.

"We see this as a great opportunity to bring electric power into the commercial vehicle industry and utilize it both for improving fuel economy while driving, and for meeting power demands while stationary, said Karina Morley, Ricardo global product group director for Controls & Electronics. This project exemplifies Ricardos ongoing commitment to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Ricardo has successfully completed well in excess of 100 hybrid projects that span hybrid configurations from micro hybrid to full hybrid and plug-in hybrids, in the commercial, military and automotive domains."

Ford F250 trucks "what next" 

Australia the loss is yours.

What do we do in Australia now that its all over for the Ford f250 truck, Gone now is that adrenalien reserved for the new model release, Gone now is the hype and water cooler discussion on a Monday morning, just Gone. Next
into Australia the lighter trucks will make the inroads into the f250 domain. Towing now left to the likes of Nissan Navara and Toyota Hilux. The dinasour landcruiser ute will now shake the bones of many a farm boy. Ford will now have to find another vehicle to substantiate its high price for parts and servicing. Reality now for Australia the f250 will not return as we know it.
