The iconic truck that saved a dying country town | 60 Minutes Australia 

10:05 - “I smell burning rubber”……”it’s clutch” 😂😂

Makes me proud to be an Aussie.🇭🇲

I love how the city say it's odd it's called living

The title should say "The iconic utes that saved a dying country town"

Someone get this to Iwrocker!!

I saw it for the first time in my favorite Australian tv show - McLeods Daughters. LOVE IT!

First car was a 1980 WB ute with a 5 post bull bar. Ex farm ute from scone👍

Deni is the best 🎉 I love working in Deni

Most excellent, thank you.

Gotta love the Australian spirit! 😀

Going back about 7 years ago, there was a Ford LNT 8000 in a second hand motor vehicle dealers' lot, in Edwardstown. The truck had a tub on the back! Passed comment to the train driving neighbour... "Yes, we need to pool our resources and make a purchase!!!"

Thank you so much. 👍

the australians have a great life having their own farms and own cattle. appears like they have lots of fun too. i would like that. these australian pick-up trucks, from somewhere long time ago i heard they are called "Hughes". or maybe i remember wrong ? are these trucks known as "Hughes" in australia ? i think it was in an australian movie i heard the term "Hughe" for these trucks, cant remember exactly what movie it was, must be like in the later 1990s. was it that tv series "flying doctor service" from australia or another tv serie or movie. these trucks are so much time in australia, they are like part of austrialian culture when i see these trucks in australia in some video.

Awesomeness !! 🥳🥳

Literally just got back from deni 2nd year goin and fucken love it

❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂i cant wait to visit

A friend of mine use to buy classic American cars to ship to Australia. I never asked, but now I wonder if any Detroit built Chevy El Camino or Ford Ranchero showed up in Australia and what the reaction would be?

That is really cool dad 👍🤙

Beautiful area😅

When i heard truck i thought of deni freighters cause my dad worked for them for a few years before he passed away great company russell tait great guy but then i realised it was a shitty way to say Ute 😂 i been there past 6 7 years my mom has been going for almost a decade

Looks better then Bathurst

Back in second half of 80s mate said his brothers old xy was sat in paddock near cooma and did i want it as me a fan ov the xw/xy, picked it up made it work, had clourd written on tail gate apparently well known in cooma/snowy mountains area, his brothers nickname was jesus i knew him as billy, like I've said clourd was well known there were tshirts made eg i slept in clourd i woke up in clourd i whatever in clourd, i don't think im spelling clourd correct, anyway used it a bit motor was worn out changed that to a cross flow did other stuff to suit what i wanted and clourd was one of the best ive ever had, with any luck some people might see this and have memories

Good morning very nice and beautiful 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Truck? It's a fucking ute.

Can't believe it makes 20 million dollars .crazy money

мне понравились девочки, которые сами крутят гайки и папа - это одобряет)

"Mate " did you bringyabongalong?

Much more wholesome and way less "odd" than any festival in Sydney.

Love it.

Pretty bad if that gold SS Holden ute wins the donut competition. Doesn't look or sound like much.

That's not a ute. This is a ute.

Yeah the the BNS bandits

Eshay bah

Don't you mean WB or GTS there isn't a GT ute

Holden,bought to you by Ford....oh god i can hear the moans n groans....🤣😂

That's news many American's/Canadian's think it came from their side. The fact is the very Idea/concept came from down under. Eventually it became bigger and they call it pick up truck in the America's.

That silver Ford Falcon 500 ute with Grandma in it as she calls it " is about 56 years old - given that Falcon was built in 1967 or thereabouts ? Regards Bill.

"The 'Truck' that saved a town"? It's a bloody Ute, it's called the ute muster where the bloody hell did you get truck from??

This a old documentary

Yeah Baby! Oi oi oi.

In reality the name “Ute” is short for utility when the first sidevalve V8 Ford utility built in Geelong in the 1930’s was offered by the Ford Motor Company of Australia ( not Ford Motor “Corporation “as Chuck Woolley said ) as the “Enclosed Coupe Utility” whereby the cab was enclosed and the Ute bed was part of the body structure as an example the Holden HQ Ute was built to this original design and whereby Holden also manufactured the HQ Holden “One Tonner” which was not sold by GM-H as a Ute and never advertised to be one as it was a seperate model and was known correctly as a “ Cab Chassis” whereby the cab was seperate from the load bed and could be had with anything from a steel to aluminium tray bed to a “Luton Peak body fitted to it and I also remember and what the newer generations don’t is the fact that all our Australian built Ford F-100 style of commercial vehicles sold here were known as a “pick up” like in the USA and were not ever called a Ute in Australia, but so really if you want to get technical the majority of vehicles at the muster are not enclosed coupe utilities at all but more along the lines of a cab chassis or pick up as in all the Hi-Luxes and Nissans and Mazdas etc etc and seems it’s only the car companies over the years conditioning people as if their Utes as the manufacture of the real Aussie Ute began to decline and disappear altogether like unfortunately the rest of the Australian motor industry which is very sad indeed!

🍻

No wonder metal polish has gone up in Australia

Im the outback outlaw,,,

Its a ute

High speed 😅🤣

Its a Ute, Yanks drive Trucks

Has been a hit since day one. A unique Aussie experience. Definitely worth a visit. Lovely ladies.

Great to see real 2 door utes and not the 4wd dual cab wank fest that smothers the streets

Interesting 60 minutes show people ripping skids in a paddock but when someone’s does it on a back road or private residence near a city, 60 minutes crack the Shits

Iconic Ute …. Definitely not a truck we are not yanks

That was very cool,I love the UTE. But they need to bring back the Ford Rancho and the Chevy El Camino in the USA 🇺🇸 . But do they make a UTE 4x4 ?

Now that’s what I call a pick up truck show

Subaru the best car i been owning so far.

If the Australians come to Asia, they can earn tons of money. I live in Asia. I am not allowed to own a car

It's not a truck.. don't pretend to be Australian if you call it a truck..fs....

Uterus unless it has a sex change

❤😂❤😂❤😂quite alot of these aussies dont know what a ute is alot of them are pick up trucks and utility trucks ❤😂

Streuth. No thanks.

Last peraon to deserve to drive that ute is anyone from 60 minutes. This doc shoukd be done by another person for sure.

I stopped at 00:41 - Mainstream media never missing a chance of make it all about the whamen. Disgusting. I am outta here.

Put the driver's seat on the right side and it could be Texas.

The 2wd utes with truck bull bars and aerials 3m high make no sense. People who drive them are bogan's. The utes look terrible

Where is the 'truck" the title suggests?? Disliked.

Incest is alive and well in The Delinquent Muster.

Don't think you bush girls can come up to the city and make the men here fall for you. We're city people we love our city, and your life is not something we could ever fit into.

60 minutes is running out of material to GOSS a bout.. what's next a story about a flower festival at some remote town... Deni has never been a dying town it's just the same with or without a hillbillie car show.

Fkn flogs

so it's all American cars ???
