     Still, given the choice between being stuck behind a ute in tropical scenery and spending four to five hours driving through stretches of semi-desert, I?d rather have the ute-plus-heart-attack.

     A sample body was made in 1933 and the first utilities, or ‘utes’, rolled off the production line next year.
