This is what passes for a pickup truck in Australia:

The El Camino is alive and well! I kept seeing this brand of cars around, with a lion logo, and I couldn't figure out what it is. Peugeot also has a lion logo but its different. I figured out that its a brand called Holden, which is actually a branch of Ford. Weird.

  1. Not 100% sure but I believe they are more associated w/GM. The recent GTO of a few years ago was a re-badged Holden product. I believe the Pontiac G8 was also an imported Holden model. Hope that helps and FWIW. :-)

  2. Some research shows you're right George, I got it mixed up with the very similiar Ford Falcon Ute: http://images.drive.com.au/drive_images/Editorial/2008/05/19/FalconUte_m_m.jpg
