5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

The last ever Ford “ute� has rolled off the production line in Australia. Short for “utility vehicle�, the half-car, half-van was first produced in the 1930s. Australian comedian Felicity Ward learnt to drive in one. She spoke to 5 live Breakfast about the ute’s iconic status in Australia. “It’s got so many uses. I’m worried what builder’s dogs are going to have to do now!� she said. This clip is originally from 5 live Breakfast on August 2 2016.
