Love all holden and ford fans coming together and appreciating both beasts

A nice non bias review. Being an f6 owner I really do miss the V8, it can excite you whilst retaining your license. The F6 is only fun when you’re being naughty hence rarely using it’s potential

[FredricksonZak]

Love my Holdens, but mate! What bloke could resist a masterpiece of a machine the F6 is.

[steve]

That maloo sounds amazing for a stock exhaust!

[plumbs]

I’m lucky and blessed enough, to own a 310 and Xy Gt rep. The old school cammed and worked Clevo is just plain fun ! The F6 is just an absolute weapon ! Bit like a 2 stoke yz 250 v a Wr 450 f dirt bike !

[rodneymcgiveron]

Both great but if I had to choose, the blue blood flowing through my veins would see the F6 parked in the driveway . At least with the leaf springs it could actually be used as a ute far more readily than coils in the Maloo.. The proper work utes that Ford built always had leaf springs for that reason I believe ...

[markdurl]

the leaf springs are actually more useful if you are hauling heavy loads. a mate of mine put 3 dirt bikes in the back of his VZ ute, the rear end sagged. that would not have happened with leaf springs. thats why the falcon ute is all round more practical, you got the barra which can do INSANE amounts of horsepower, and you got that increased load capacity, also a lot of fun to drive as a daily, no matter what variant you drive, NA, turbo or F6. dont get me wrong, the maloo is a lot of fun to drive, an ex girlfriend of mine, her brother had one, let me take it for a spin, it was a blast. but i dont like all the extra bells n whistles, they would be distracting to a less experienced driver. and as for me personally, i personally believe that less is more.

Also, something to keep in mind when looking at it's interior for example, Ford insisted on competing with Holden's V8's with their own V8 models in marketing, and didn't push their turbo cars as the V8 competitors they truly were. People even saying Ford said the turbo power outputs were lower than they actually were, to make their V8 models look better for sales.

Imagine sitting in the passenger seat and old mates just putting shit on your ride. 😆

Hi Ross,

Great review was a joy to watch. Such a shame both are no longer in production. Something missed 🙂- some safety issues - the Maloo has poor driver visibility particularly with looking over your shoulder and to the rear where as the f6 is good and the Maloo has smaller side mirrors with reduced visibility 🙂. The F6 scores better on driver visibility🙂. Either way they are both fantastic pieces of machine.

[davothegreat]

Sensational stuff, mate!! Great work, well done! 👌

[BobarissGish]

Mate I love the thrown back into your seat feel.

[brendanstafford]

Another great video mate, I’m waiting for the Skoda Superb video with the launch control.
It should be about the same as time these utes .
You have to love these Aussie Utes, I’ve owned both of them in the past and they were awesome and still are.👍

[BarnettMotorsport]

Both cars are cool. Good to see the Australian made engine take the cake. I was lucky enough to spend a week at the ford engine plant in Geelong, was very cool!

[josephferraro]

Love the content mate.. I think the fact that they are a “Ute” is lost in both ranges.. they more have become a 2 door performance car.. I’d love the f6 in my driveway :)

[brokearse]

F6 can carry a fair amount more weight than the maloo just due to the suspension. Also who wants all them apps when you have a turbo lol

[whisper]

You're a kid in candy shop every time you sit in an Aussie ute! Bloody awesome review!

[wow-nntu]

I like my cars quiet and fast, love the f6 but I can say that maloo is very nice as well!

[gloindigo]

Haven't watched vid yet but I know this is going to be a big one. Let's go ford 🇭🇲

[eddiej]

Ford man since a kid in the 70s, but the Maloo for me with the 8. Enjoyment even at low speeds around town
