And so we have it, another biased off-road / on-road / cosmetic test of a bunch of “Utes”.

Very predictable outcome given the unconscious bias evident in the tester’s comments and body language throughout.

I don't have an issue with their final results.

I like how they say 'Aussie Engineered' NOTHING is Aussie Engineered.
Unlike the SA Government, the Aussies failed to support their motor industry.
As a result, over the past decade or so, the Aussies lost their motor manufacturing industry.
They make nothing, just like the UK.

That’s the unconscious bias I spoke of. Maybe they are referring to the AutoCAD stations that may or may not reside in Aus doing some of the design work.

Like when we (BEHR) manufactured (sorry, assembled) radiator assemblies for their Holdens back in the day in PE.

German owned company, design capability all in Stuttgart, with a factory in PE supplying to Aus for final vehicle assembly.

So called “Aussie engineered” products.
