As the title suggests, what's your favourite Ford TV Commercial of all time?
For any reason - be it funny or classy or just plain simple. Mine's the BF Mk II Fairmont Ghia - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XNkbkxi Awesome haunting music, stunning visuals... definitely my fave.

It was such a great ad for such a good car. I think it did great things for ford. I also like the incarnations of the ford ute adds. This one is good http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kd2m...om=PL&index=19 A few mistakes in it. I assumed that the add featured ford utes only. But in the scenes where they show the 2 blokes inside the XR8, if you look through the windows, you see other types of cars other than utes. |

Also, the Ford commercial where the kids is playing with the slot cars and the Falcon is that only one to stay on the track. |

From left field, but, if re-edited today, with current cars, might help Ford Australia immensely.

The 'Live It' campaign by a company called Kaleidoscope if I can correctly recall was probably the worst. |

Does anyone here remember when the F series had a Landcruiser on its back and climed the hill and the commentator asks "now I would like to see the roles reversed". I think it was about 1981, it was brillant.

check this one out, from our beloved EFs.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mADTF...eature=related now if you redid that ad with a G6ET as the basis, modernise and update the script a bit, you'd be onto a winner. Oh and damn if that Fairlane didnt look half bad i reckon (mmm, makes me wonder for my next car.....)

Not a FoMoCo ad but it has a Ford (EB ED ?) and one of the best V8 drivers of the last generation and the late Barry Sheene as well!

Best Ford ad ever was from the mid 70s. It had a F150 going up a serious incline with a Tojo ute strapped to its tray doing it no trouble. Does anyone remember this one?
Cheers Steve |
