Default Could Ford do a GMSV type deal?

With large trucks utes being a expanding market here in Australia, could the time be right for Ford to go at it the way GM has done and offer factory backed RHD conversions? Of course, not suggesting a replacement of Fords local activities, but a compliment to what is already here.

Ram and Chevrolet are doing quite well for the premium price that they ask for, being a success for Walkinshaw who does both conversions.

F-Trucks, Bronco and Maverick could all be offered here.

Great thing about it is, the investment from the supplier (Ford) isn't as great as a complete engineering program for RHD.

With GMSV on the build, could be a missed opputunity for Ford.
