The cynic in me still sees this as just another mis-aimed attempt to push some metal, like the Lowndes limited edition sedan. Only 233 of those were to be built, yet 4 months after coming on the market, Holden are still advertising them. The Lowndes name won’t sell a ute or wagon, but Sandman will.
Original Sandman was a response to the way people were customising their commercial vans. New Sandman doesn’t have that leg to stand on.
I agree with Alien DNA that something is better than nothing. I just wish it was executed closer to the original intentions of Sandman.
