JM. Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 I saw this while watching the playoff game, one of the best Ford commercials I've seen: Rodeo Ford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hmm. Someone's violating Ford's usage policy for the Blue Oval. Not only are you not supposed to use it in logos, you're not supposed to have anything within about a third of the logo's diameter around it. Strangely, Ford actually does enforce this from time to time. The guy looks really familiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickF1011 Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Here's a couple other great ones. These are for his Foreign Motors dealerships, but he owns a Ford franchise too. Kinda scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenCaylor Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 This is my all time favorite Ford commercial. Also, at 3 minutes, one of the longest. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GbOujXaGFY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda reminds me of the Mariner commercial where the husband/wife rushed to get to the car first in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark B. Morrow Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 So that's what Burton Gilliam has been doing since Blazing Saddles. Golly Mr. Taggert I sure do hate to see you like this. Suppose I were to shoot that Tundra dead. Would that cheer you up? I wonder if they sponsor a baked bean buffet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolita Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 I wish I could find my favorite commercial, it was a Ford Argentina commercial from the 70s in which they release a F100 from a Hercules plane with a small parachute and the truck bounces over a field and drives away...really cool!

Ford Jellymoulds Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 (edited) This is my favourite car advert, but does anybody know if Ford still sell this hairspray, l think this car is just so kool it would kill Toyota sales overnight. This was a coffee avert was made in the UK a couple of years ago not intended to be serious, but to poke fun at young folk driving around with music turned up full volume full windows down with no consideration for anybody else around them (The advert gave a mirror image to show how stupid they looked). It was problem everybody was moaning about at the time, so everybody loved it when it was shown in the UK, it picket up best advert award for the year, and done the Cortina no harm as everybody started reminiscing over the old one they once had owned all those decades ago.

JM. Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 Dealers that make commercials like the one in the OP should be penalized. This has got to do damage to the Ford brand image. I don't think I have ever seen a Toyota or Honda commercial this terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honda of Annapolis has some pretty ritardulous commercials with wide-eyed white people yelling "That's unbelievable!" at the camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
