Wish I could justify the cost step up to a FG xr6t ute...

Is the alloy sports bar no longer an option on utes? I haven't seen an FG with one yet.

Not sure, I like that flat sleek look of a no hump or bar hard cover..

A few weeks I think Jason, I was only joking when I said I wouldn't take it for a run..
It would be nice to be able to afford and run a dedicated drag car...
