There's more than six decades of hard Aussie work ethic in its DNA which can be traced back to Holden's first ute in 1951. It still has the ability to carry a useful half tonne-plus payload but these days that's more likely to be a dirt bike than a load of dirt, or surfboards rather than floor boards.
