    Tomorrow I travel to Auckland to pick up three more Forza bikes that I have sold in the last 10 days.

    The Cavallo 230cc trailbikes that I paid $2,200 for in 2006 have had nothing but clueless novices ride them and I have not had a single reliability issue with any of them. I am currently selling them off. the last two sold for $1200.00 and $1000.00.
    $1000.00 depreciation over 5 years- I can live with that. especially as they were earning $220.00 per day while they were in service.

    you guys are full of wit and wisdom though. Do carry on.

    Click my sig if you want to browse the latest offerings from China. pay particular attention to the price of each model.
    Spose you drive a Chery too?

    I love the roofrack sign - "Warning: roof rails are for cosmetic purposes only. Do not use."
    Shaken, not stirred in the shakey city!

    Hey! I did look at one of these, http://youtu.be/X6NGoxEz70U but they dont make an AWD version so it lost my vote
    It turns out that in the flesh they are pretty much the same kind of thing as a Honda CRV. - good for grandad and his golf clubs. (but to make it look like that, you have to stretch the corners of your eyes outward with your fingers.)

    I liked the video in your post. very informative and presented in a most concilliatry format.
    but those reviewers know where their bread and butter comes from right now..
    the people who buy Holdents and Faclons. they will stir that pot till it boils dry. Have you seen how much money they make with the merchandise?
    meanwhile.... the engineers in the land of the rising sun will surround and suffocate them. They will become a memory like Valiants and Leylands.
    Retired- just some guy with a few bikes......

    Well, no actually. The writing is already on the wall for Ford Australia because Ford is shifting entirely to a front-wheel drive platform over the next two years. Ford Aus' parent company has tried to shut to down Australian based manufacturing repeatedly over the last ten years and the onyl thing that has saved them is a common RWD platform. To stay in Aus, Australians would have to openly embrace turbo-charged four cylinder front-wheel drive Falcons. That isn't going to happen so they'll be importing turbo-charged four cylinder front-wheel drive Falcons from whichever SE Asian country gets the contract.

    GM will kill Holden in the near future too.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
