"If these trucks shouldn't be on city roads then neither should buses..."
Yep. That's the level of argument you'd expect from a Hulkster owner.
Moronic.

A lot of councils don't allow trucks, caravans or boats to be parked on
street in residential areas. It's off-street or nothing. Sounds like a
damn good idea and they should amend the bylaw to include the hulksters.

Seriously, did you *really* need to start a new thread for this given
that the topic was chucked back and forth only a few days ago?

For fuck's sake....

1. It's on topic unlike the photos of planes and whatever off-topic crap
your dropkick stooges post.

2. Did you have to reply twice you attention whore?

3. Who made you sheriff, boy?

So ignore it Fraudster.

Or in the words of an obnoxious arsehole, “In the mean time, if you're
*not* happy with how I do things you're free set yourself on fire in
protest.” Fraudster

And more coming.. 100 left hand drive Ford F150's were unloaded at
melbourne today for right hand drive conversion.... 1000's more on the
way. More Rangers, Hilux's, Tritons, Navara's, et al..

You best start singing "I wear my sunglasses at night...." or buy one,
because the growth of 4wd utes doesnt seem to be slowing down too much.

Of course you could always buy a stedi lightbar, and give 'em a bit of
their own back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBll8BdCuWs. Whilst I
dont have that model, i have this one,
https://www.stedi.com.au/st4k-28-inch-double-row-52-led-light-bar.html
and I can vouch that they seem to be the best performing. They are legal
if installed correctly (In Vic, below the bonnet...)

I have replied to one of your previous squealings about the same
thing... I would imagine a few(?) ute drivers are not aware/dont care
that they sit higher on the road, and their headlight switch surrounds
have several functions, as I found out after reading the manual. The
sales droid just wafted over the fact that the headlights on my 2yo
Ranger can be moved up or down depending on the load in the back to
suit. I only discovered it after people flashing their high beams at me
on my way to work in the morning 2 days after I bought it. A case of RTFM...

You could always look down to the fog line on the left, if available...

I was following (thank goodness) a guy who had a lightbar mounted on the
roof! It lit up the road pretty well but I'm glad that I wasn't going
the other way.

My 1968 Renault 16TS had similar headlamp adjustment, but via a small
lever adjacent to the headlights. The suspension was so soft that the
adjustment was needed if there was any weight in the boot.

"squealing"? Complaining about a potentially life-threatening fitting is
"squealing"? I'm guessing that your ancestors described Ralph Nader as a
"squealer".

You do your stereotype proud.

I do everything possible including that. At 6.30am in winter on the
way to work I.m aggressively passed by these roaring monsters, on fat
tyres, and dinner-plate headlights, and half blinded by those coming
the opposite way. They're all trades-people judging by the lock-up
bins on the back. These machines must cost 100$G if a cent!

It invites the question "what is Hi-Beam"?
These modern war-wagons must surely have adjustments to reduce the
elevation of their lights. Maybe the drivers ignore these out of pure
macho bloody-mindedness? My sensible old 98 Toyota 4x2 Hilux projects
a soft golden glow of illumination of about 3 car-lengths in a dark
street, but then one of the above roars up behind the whole street
ahead is lit up as in daylight. One feels like a dinosaur gazing at
that meteor just before it hit!

There is no avoiding the blinding lights from these fuckwits.

Yes. And rank stupidity. It's not just lights, I saw one in a new Amarok
speeding in a 40km/h school zone while kids were walking to school just
this Friday, just to drop their own kid off. They just don't give a fuck
about anyone else these narcissistic entitled fuckwits.
