Ford WTF
 
So I have seen some of fords new commercials. I just start laughing at how stupid some of the features are they are "showing off" I mean come on, growing a digital tree...................wow I mean really. And talking about how they can change the color to pink and not having a gas cap. WTF are they seriously trying to sell a car based on these "features"

It's called marketing to the masses (and it's working). Get over it.

Na I wont get over it, I think it is some of the funniest stuff I have seen.

it is catchy. they definantley know how to capture your attention.

problem is their lineup changes so much between renaming vehicles and adding new models. i dont know how they can keep up.

what do you guys think about the ford tarus SHO commericals where they put it up against other luxury cars. IMO....I doubt the interior of a ford can match that of an audi.....and "ecoboost?".....so thats what their calling turbocharged cars these days :roflpuke2: too bad its been used for awhile.

It's all marketing and like I said, it's working. They have been doing a terrific job.

The SHO is actually a nice car. The materials might not be the same as an Audi, but then again neither is the price. They still are pretty good, though.

And it's not like luxury car material quality is that fantastic to begin with. Take the new Mercedes... they use cheap plastics all over the place!

I agree not even close.



I am not sure how they are doing a terrific job if all they can talk about is how you grow a tree. If anything GM is doing a much better job.

Dude... go listen to Akon or something.

For the sake of the humanity, do not major in anything business related. :shakes head:

^I agree, it is working! There are lots of new Fords out there, lots!

hmmm gonna give that one on the MB plastic :bowrofl: driven in their bluetec suv's and let me tell ya, I hate the dash in their m-class, but loved the leather dash in one of their gl-class. I think ford will really blow away the other muscle cars when they introduce the ecoboost mustang....though I heard of purist resisting it, but some say ford will bring back a 5.0 for those who want the v-8

LOL no biggie I just think GM is actually trying to get people to buy products. I am not trying to be a business guy of sort.

The purist Mustang fans resist everything not-V8, but most of them don't ever consider the fact that if it wasn't for the V6 models there would be no V8. :)

I find it interesting (and ridiculous) that you think that. All of the evidence points the contrary.

Ford pulls down GM's pants on a daily basis.

This coming from a member with mustang in his name :rolleyes:

I am just stating what I see how bad ford commercials are. The truck ones are good but other than that na.
