I am in a despute with a friend about the cost of traveling to New Zealand. Can you do one month with $1,000?

I want to travel on a budget, but I still like to have some luxury. Is the dollar tiple and is it realitively cheap?


Answer
I live in NZ and our cash income is quite low, but we live well. If you avoid tourist traps like Rotorua, Queenstown and the ski places, you'll save a lot of money and you won't miss much. Some of our most interesting places you hardly ever read about in the tourist brochures. Like the Southern Scenic Route; the coastal route from Dunedin to Te Anau. The lesser-known walking tracks like the Whangapeka track, the Heaphy track and Stewart Island's walking tracks. But buy your supplies before arriving on Stewart Island; the local shops are expensive. Compared with most developed countries, NZ is a cheap place to live, provided you do your homework first and avoid ripoff places. Yes, you could have a good time here for $1000 for a month. Stay in backpackers, avoid the scenic rail trips, hitch hike, travel by bus or see if any rental cars need returning to other centres.

Can I get a Holden Ute in America?

Answer
If you have the money you can get anything!!!!!

I just had a look at the pontiac website and the G8 is a rebadged Holden VE Commodore with different front styling.

here is a body of text taken directly from the holden australia website...

Today, left- and right-hand drive variants of the Commodore, Statesman, Caprice and Ute are exported to every continent except Antarctica.

Holden's largest vehicle export market is the Middle East, where the Chevrolet Lumina (Commodore) sedans and long wheelbase V8-powered Chevrolet Caprice sedans (based on Statesman/Caprice) are the region's top selling GM models.

The WM Chevrolet Caprice won BEST LUXURY CAR at the Middle East 'Car of the year' awards in 2006.

Commodore is exported to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Syria, Lebanon, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, South Africa, New Zealand, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Fiji, Brunei and Brazil. (View Image) The Caprice and Statesman are exported to Middle East regions and New Zealand.

The Holden Ute is exported to South Africa and New Zealand. In 2004, Holden Special Vehicles, in conjunction with Holden, commenced its first export vehicle program to the United Kingdom (HSV Coupe), and the full HSV range is exported to New Zealand...

So in the short term the answer would be 'no it's not available in the usa'
