I would drive the RX-7 all day long.
 
I was thinking, there aren't enough utes in this thread. Then the Comanche thing was posted. Then I found this.

Air bag it, paint the entire thing black including all the chrome and throw some 180 spokes on it and i would drive it:)
 
I think you might want to add a "replace suspension" in your to-do list somewhere as well.
Don't think airbags and 180 spokes would work that well with the few feet of lift that it has going on.
 
What is blancmange?

sorry, dude, but the Jeep Comanche is not a ute. it's a Compact Pickup.

there are only 4 or 5 true Utes in the US, and they've all long since been discontinued (they're considered Poser Pickups, here)
Chevy El Camino
GMC Caballero
Subaru Brat
Subaru Baja (is it still in production?)
and a dodge/plymouth version I can't remember the name of

I believe the proper definition of a Ute is a car body with a pickup bed blended into it, right?
 
I'm pretty sure ute = pick-up in Australia and New Zealand.

How about the:

GMC Sprint
Dodge Rampage ( & Shelby Rampage :crazy:)
Plymouth Scamp (1983, not the 70's Dart equivelant)
Volkswagon Caddy
 
Haha I think we get the idea of what a ute is (and there is a thread somewhere for utes) so let's not get too off topic.
 
It's not off topic, utes belong here because they are questionable :lol:.
 
Eh I don't think they're questionable. I actually think they're pretty cool, unless they're front-wheel drive in which case they are questionable.
 
Awsome, but still questionable

With those wimpy stock axles, indeed it is questionable.
 
Its not really Questionable but I like the tape and stickers

I didn't think rednecks would buy a Prius.
 
Those flags cant be good. It will ruin the aerodynamics, thereby lowering gas mileage :scared:
 
Well at least the Insight looks better with stickers on it than the Prius. ;)

The biggest problem with this thing is that there is no way the driver could get into the car...
 
my Bad, I forgot about the Ranchero! (waits to get beat up by the ford guys)

thank you to suede for the DCP's. and I know I've never heard of A GMC sprint

Joyey D: used as, but not a "pickup" in the American sense, a Body on Frame shaped like a Brick is generally the definition of a pickup (complete with a primitive suspension, Toyotas nonwithstanding)

as for that cherokee...that's a totally NORMAL modification. if it has a frame and is shaped like a box, SOME guy out there will jack it up through the roof

Because people from other countries have to use American definitions on everything, got it.
 
a ute is a vehicle with one piece body and bed, a pickup has the bed and cab separate
doesn't matter which part of the world it means the same.
