and unlike the rest of the range, it has an actual spare wheel
(a skinny steel one :confused: )
There was a red wagon at Holden yesterday that had been heavily lowered and was wearing some grey 20's, actually looked pretty good. Sorry no pics of that one.
The one ZB that actually looks okayQuote:

I always thought they were going to sell far less ZB's than VF's when they have no V8, no manuals and no Utes, and no export possibilities and also of course RWD was a point of difference. Holden could easily quantify how many V8's, Utes and manuals they sold and know they are basically writing off those sales, maybe some ute buyers might go for a Colarado. The number of sales lost as no RWD might be harder to quantify, but they would have known they were going to take a big hit in sales.Quote:

To me 90 Kg towball when general expectation is 10% ratio translates to a 900Kg trailer. Low towball capacity is common with Euros, something to be aware of if you want to tow with a ZB.Quote:

dunno how Holden can say ZB max towing is 2100 but with a ball weight of only 90kg :hmmm:
