I can fit a 660 raptor with extra 60 mil rear and 500 predator with a 100mil spare room on a 2 pallet tray top,



or I can put on the Brute and have a ton of room left,

A full width race quad fits perfect in the back of a Falcon ute, just....

Au (1999) trays and onwards are wider than XF,XG,XH (pre 1999) but either will do the job.

i had a 94 rodeo ute with a long tray , that carried my raptor 660, a china quad 150 cc. since then i have bought a 2005 rodeo space cab , the same tray space but had seats fitted for my 2 kids . this has the same size tray as the old rodeo , but now the whole family can come riding. the ute now carries a 90cc china for my 2 year old, a 110 china for my 5 year old and a 150 china for my wife. and as for the raptor 660, it now goes in a trailor behind the ute. Lucky for me the 3.5 v6 dosent even notice the load, except my pocket does, can be a bit thirsty.

A bit off topic but a mate of mine once fitted a full width race quad and a yzf 450 in the back of an XH Falcon ute, very tight squeeze, 600km return trip.

I've got a HiAce and small trailer so I can take 2 quads when I need too. It's not too hard to put MX width into HiAce, just gotta watch your hands on the roof as you go over the wheel arches.....
