Guessing it is an HF antenna for middle of nowhere.

That's a lot of communication equipment. I would imagine they have more than their fair share of middle-of-nowhere type places they have to police though.

Australia is fucking huge and very desolate once you get off the water. I'm guessing it's to get RF range on their radios. I couldn't imagine what getting some voice/data over satcom could cost down there.

I was hoping for a Mad Max monster car. Much disappoint.

Looks like HF screw driver antennas. They have paid ALE HF services down there.

Holden went bye bye in 2017. Ford Australia in 2016. They're highways are fucking nice too. Just watch out for Kangaroos. Seriously.

Wonder if the paint scheme and colors are deliberate?  Would be cool if it was!  Make some V8s!

I once got a speeding ticket in AUS for 1 km/hr over the posted limit. Yup, 0.6 mph over the limit. (101 in a 100 zone) I doubt their equipment is even that accurate.

Australia is big, vast, harsh and they choose a BMW?

It'll be tragic when that blue heeler dies of strange cancer shortly after his retirement, but nobody will question why.
