a few bubbles around the front windscreen seal, drivers side floor due to leaking windscreen, back of roof, rhr corner by taillight, a few other minor areas.
not too bad really.
the utes been tecktilled a long time ago, which has done it a world of good.

utes are cool, but they are too small in the cab. Everytime I rode in this ute, i was in agony just watching you sitting behind the wheel. You knee's were almost above the height of the dashboard. :lol:
