Mate, that is devastating and I am sorry to hear, my son passed at only 12yo. I live near your nephews university in Perth Western Australia and am sure his passing is felt amongst his Australian peers and alumni.
So work has thrown me a curve ball and is looking to relocate me to the USA for the next 4+ years. I’ll be living in the Charleston SC area (initially) and need some advice about housing, cars and general life. While we both come from “western cultures” the are some significant difference...
I ordered mine in February, I was the 90th Raptor preorder just at my dealer! 6G Rangers have been available for about 4 months now, with long waits for any V6 model. If you ordered a Raptor today, it would take about 7-9 months for delivery.
They aren’t cheap in Australia either. $2000aud including fitting + additional fuel. But the new car is about to get 450km on its first tank, that just won’t work here ?

Went 4WDing in West Cape Howe in Western Australia. Some of the most remote and best beaches in Australia. I was out on my own and unfortunately got a bit stuck.
Over here in Australia the Everest is the SUV version of the Ranger and comes with a sunroof standard on the higher spec models. Personally I have never heard of a sunroof leaking on any of these cars (not to say it doesn't happen), but I would love the huge sunroof on my next Ranger and those...

I ended up going way overboard on My ranger with a 23.3" all flood light and twin Quad spots. I think it looks pretty cool with the nudge bar that provides a solid mounting point.
