@Dual Grenny Guy will eventually become Triple Grenny Guy and need to update his signature
I actually have been thinking of this not even joking!! I want this red one below sooo badly with that stance, large fender flares, tires, roof light rack, if I could buy that exact one it’s a wrap! I have even contacted several consignment car dealers this week to sell a couple of my other vehicles as I finally decided to downsize from 7 rides, especially since the last 6 months all I ever drive are these 2 Grenny’s. #Facts!! So as you can see I am very serious. Does make my kids happy as well as they think I have too many vehicles now anyway, so will sell 2 maybe 3 off in exchange for one more Ineos. The problem is that the Quartermaster isn’t really a Grenadier right? So can’t say “Trio Grenny Guy”. Thought about “Trio Ineo …”but the double “G” works now, nothing rhymes with Ineo (left off the “S” so it rhymes with Trio)….sad, but see I have been thinking about this. I do have some time as I text this pic to my sales guy saying I want this exact vehicle and he said we won’t get the Quartermasters until March 2025 (USA), So the clock is a ticking…..🤑

If you’re asking about the red QM, I have no idea. Been trying to find more info on it. I am sure more info will be forthcoming from Ineos or a vendor in the near future. 🤞
Yes, asking about red QM.....They might be Rhino Outback wheels which I have been looking at?

I know absolutely squat about the Chinese car market.

Are they big buyers of stuff like the Grenadier? Premium SUV’s I could see, yeah, but these?
They want to have new, shiny and different to other people.
I think if they sell 1,000 a year it will be good and 2,000 a year would be fantastic.

That would just strip volume from the plant they already own.
Yeah - seems unlikely- unless they really launched something like the Fusilier targeting higher volume, and getting out of the QM US chicken tax. Do it in South Carolina - right by the BMW plant

I think the US market is very different to the rest of the world.
You want bigger, packed with features, a step and handle to help get into the bed, large motor and realistically american built. (despite Mexico not being in America)
I don't really think the Ineos range was designed with the US in mind except maybe as a really low volume oddity.
It suits the Australian market nicely, but we are just too small to give them the volumes they need.
If Ineos can pick up the mining and defense markets then that would boost the volume significantly.
The cab chassis (not stupid stupid chassis cab) is aimed squarely at the mining market but they will have to give big fleet discounts.

Dual cab or single? Probably both and maybe simplify the vehicle like Toyota do for the mining market, not sure if that's the case for Defence. (y)
