You don't see to many Chevys there because it costs so much to covert to right hand drive ($10,000 to $12,000). But what you do see is the Gm built Holden. They have a Ute (as they call them) that looks like an old El camino. They come in an SS with a 6 liter engine, 6 spd trans, and rear wheel drive. I wish Gm would sell them here. They also make them in 4 door version.(bottom picture is a ford) Ford makes one very simular to Holdens.

how come the satellite countries get all the good stuff? it's gotta be emissions and crash ratings or something. our styling here at home seems to be way behind europe and asia.

Australia is very strict. It has to be right hand drive and has to meet 29 or 30 standards for build, safety and crash testing before it can be imported. Almost every make of truck (ute) is avaiable in a 4 door. I think the US is behind in style. Small 4 door truck have been avaiable since the late 80's.

i want the blue one, but what would it cost to change to left hand drive?

Yep the Holden Ute has been around for quite a while.
I spent a month working at the Holden Plant in Port Melbourne years back, I want to return soooo bad :D

Isn't the bottom blue one a Ford F6 Tornado?

The F6 270 Turbo produces its maximum power of 270kW at 5250 rpm. However, the real story is torque. All 550Nm on tap from just 2000 rpm and remaining constant all the way through to 4250 rpm.

My cousin lives in Australia and purchased one, I am not a Ford Fan, but this thing must haul!

Yes it is a Ford. I just can't get use to kw instead of hp.

looks like the gto pick up!!!!!!!!!! I really hate how gm took the gto from the australlian design i think they could have done better
