NINE LAPS OF the Aussie map. That’s 135,000km, which is the distance Ford Australia reckons it put on its locally converted right-hand-drive F-150s that have undergone durability testing at the You Yangs proving ground in Victoria in preparation for the large 4x4 ute’s local launch later this year.
Ford says the F-150 has been punished with extreme temperatures, trailer towing, water crossings, ultra-fine sand, mud and corrosion tests.
