I want a DeLorian as my first car, but I'm pretty that's not gonna happen.

The name Ute is the name of the car. It is technically a pick-up.

no the name is a Holden VE HSV Maloo the vehicle is a Ute, not a Pick Up.. there is a difference.

And it was going to become the Pontiac G8 ST when it got shipped to the states but that never happened. They were calling it the second coming of the El Camino.

Holden now sell G8 ST's :P since the deal fell through and they have a pile of them.

its only the body kit that's different between the G8 and the VE

As of today, I am now the new owner of my Mother's Jetta. Looks a bit like this:


Mine is purple with oxidizing paint, but it works. Mostly stock with a replaced trans.

It was my grandpa's and he took really good care of it before it passed away.

It was in for an oil change and the guy found a mouse nest in what was left of the air filter. It made so much of a difference that the first time I punched it up a hill, it surprised me enough that I yelled POWERRRRRRR like Jeremy Clarkson XD

I now have a bright orange GMC Sonoma. My friends call it "The Great Pumpkin".

You should move to the deep south. You can just park all of them on your lawn in random directions, and mounted up on cinder blocks. Rust is encouraged. /stereotyping

I feel the same about the wheels. I think it's just because the tires on the front are 205 60/R15 when they should be 215 70/R15. So the tires on the front are a bit smaller then they should be, but the tires on the rear are just about worn out.
 
Anyway, a bit more info on my truck...

It has a 4.3L V6 engine. And as my '93 Century (mentioned in first post) was equipped, it also has a CB and a radar detector. The CB is the same Cobra 25 with Nightwatch, but instead of having a single 3-foot FireStick antenna on a magnetic base, it has dual 4-foot FireStick antennae that are mounted to the truck (as seen in picture).
 
I also got a new Cobra brand radar detector (The old Whistler I had was annoying and outdated).
 
I am currently looking for another police scanner to mount in the truck and I am still waiting to put in my 650 watt linear amplifier for the CB, too.
