Those people at Ford are very nice. For my big trip to Crowdy Head to cover the beach trials (cf previous post) they lent me a very nice Ranger Wildtrak. I must admit I was rather impressed with its comfort and all round ability and it certainly made my life a lot easier. Sometimes one forgets what great cars this popular marque can and does make. If I were ever to drive to Uluru, the real one, not this service station pictured on the Pacific Highway, I am sure it would make a pretty reliable companion. Thank you Henry Ford and all those who have followed him – as Isaac Newton said, “If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.”
