Gay Icon, Jeep Wrangler, has gone hardcore. It’s grown, and had a handy tray-back glued on, and is now called Gladiator. At $76,490, Gladiator costs about as much as a movie of the same name, but, is it worth it? Look at it this way, do you want to watch a Gladiator movie, or would you rather be part of it?

This base model has the bare bones for tradies who are watching the pennies, don’t need much power, and don’t want to pay for 4WD systems they will never use. The 2-seater, 2.4 petrol, has 94kw/ 194Nm, and [...]

2019 Ford Ranger Wildtrack Road Test, Review Passenger cars are feeling less love than a PM’s election promise. It had been many moons since last I drove a Ranger, so I was looking forward seeing what Ford has managed to shoehorn into an old favourite.
