Ford really trying to compare to a lambo?
 

Really 30 seconds of watching this and I was done. Ford is really trying to compare a lamb to a fiesta? Get the **** out of here. All that lambo had to do is power slide to get around the corners.

what a moron, she opens the rear hatch of a rear engine car looking for trunk space. its in the front, idiot. i hate this commercial.

This bitch makes me want to shove a red hot railroad spike into my eye and through my brain.

Ugh.

Worst. Commercial. Ever.

Reminds me of when Clarkson compared the Ascari (I think) to some dependable car on Top Gear. Had me lol'ing.

I get tired of the comparison commercials. Hyundai is doing it, where guys sit there in an Elantra and glow about how it's nicer than their accord (let alone they could be talking about an '86 accord for all we know). GM has them where a guy says he'd rather have, like, a Trailblazer over an Audi. I'm like :wtf:

Advertising agencies think we have the mental sophistication of a pudding in this country. :mad:

I am right there with you. If your going to do a comparison let Jeremy Clarkson do it or someone from car and driver. But come on a lambo and this...thing are two different car styles all together. Not to mention no turning radius is going to be like that not even on the darn road.


.....Where is my shovel.

Guys, they made the commercial as a joke. Don't read too much into it.

Exactly! lol @ everyone getting so mad at it :roflpuke2:

What an ugly bitch

:facepalm:

:iagree::facepalm::facepalm:

But it is on fords direct home page when you go to it. I think they are not doing it as a joke.

Some can't tell that's a joke? Wow. Go down to the comedy store and buy a sense of humor!

:D

wow its on fords website

I didn't watch the commercial. I'm just saying the serious ones about car comparo's, such as GM and Hyundai, are a bit silly. I assumed this to be srs, but I can't watch it at work.

I have a sense of humor just stupid for them to even take the time to make this.

wait....your telling me for the past 25yrs i could have bought one?.... i have been looking for mine for a quarter century...

.....

okay i got it....:bowrofl:....but this still is not all that humorous!

Obviously, but knowing that fact doesn't make the commercial any less excruciating does it?

Correct, I never said it was a good joke! :D

Yeah a lot of these car commercials now days make me cringe. It makes you wonder how ignorant the general public really is. Subaru and Volkswagen are making especially lame ones lately. The one where Subaru had this middle aged man drive a legacy thru a parking lot full of ricers while getting mad respect made me wish Chuck Norris would kick me as hard as possible in the balls. And then there’s the Volkswagen “autobahn for all event” gimmick where they try to make it seem as though a Jetta accelerates like a Buggati Veyron via “shooting the gap”.

You must have not seen the new Subaru comercials, i think they are pretty good.http://www.the370z.com/lounge-off-to...tml#post638657
I say let top gear Handle the car comericals, they made some nifty ones for the scirocco

How could anyone watch the whole thing.... I made it to :17
:ugh:

493,000 views = marketing genius

You posting this on the forum after viewing the video = helping the cause.

<-Owns Ford stock :tup:

Waizzz likes taking pics in Wal Mart lots fyi :D

Shhhhhhhh, don't give out my secrets!!

LOL

:icon18: total inside joke!!

:rofl2:

she needs a slap in the face

Seems like a bunch of people got up on the wrong side of bed this morning, geez it's a joke commercial and from the looks of it, the marketing dept are wizards you guys can't stop talking about it, lmao :owned:

She totally reminds me of Marilyn Manson.

LOL!!

Is that one in the link you posted even shown in the U.S.? The only "New" Subaru commercials I've seen are the 2-3 EXTREMELY lame ones such as the one I mentioned. The last semi not so bad Subaru commercial I’ve seen was one where the driver was doing slides all over / around the pavement in a WRX. But even that one was edging on lame because as they showed the driver doing gear changes he clearly wasn’t changing gears, just moving his hand back and forth like a dildo.

lots of views doesn't mean marketing genius. I'm sure they could have an ad where they compare all the german cars to hitler and have swastikas all over them and it would get tons of views. The slogan could be "Buy American instead of Nazi cars" It would be a really bad ad compaign and really hurt them, but rest assured, it would get way more views than this commercial.

:roflpuke2: :roflpuke2: :roflpuke2:

Meh, we're talking about it so it's working.

If you think something like this where they insult a great car makes me want to go out and buy a ford your wrong in the head. If anything this makes me hate ford even more. And to think I was going to their website to check out the new mustang but never looked after seeing that video.

:eekdance:

LOL

You totally missed the point of the video, it was obviously a joke and not serious business.

Don't get upset because you posted it here and only gave them more views. LOL

Than why would it be on fords main page of their website?

Because of what you did, you posted it on a forum, people watched it here. Someone may have taken it and posted on another forum, and the process repeats itself.
Any advertising is good advertising, because it gets people to Ford's website, whether they stay or just go.

+1 I may go out and buy a new Mustang GT just because of this ad.

:D

advertising is dirty and underhanded by nature.

I :barf: when I hear that new Volvo slogan about how you should just buy one "because there are more important things in life", or some nonsense like that. To me, that entire idea is suggesting for you to just turn off your brain about what is essentially one of the largest purchases you'll ever make.

What's sad to me is that their target demographic exists, and as a car enthusiast, that entire philosophy is anathema to me.
