Spot on, where Mazda BT50 tried for lower prices than Ranger, VW range appears

Not in dual cabs though, which 99% of the market is diesel. With petrol over $2 a litre, that extra 3-4L per 100 km is going to be a deterrent for a lot of people.

The tide hasn't turned in this country yet. Hard to see it actually changing here anytime soon. Not unless the gov introduces Euro style sale bans.
There are small signs that fuel prices may start to ease a bit in the coming months,
people will be heaving a sigh of relief when that happens, we’re over the price gouging….
