Default Re: Classic Ford TV Commercials

Continuing on the AU theme, the AU Fairlane was launched in March 1999, followed by the LTD in June 1999. A total of 5129 AU Fairlanes and 438 LTD's were made between Mar-1999 and May-2000.



Rounding out the AU launch was the new AU Falcon Ute in June 1999. Where the sedans failed to gain traction, the Ute was incredibly successful for Ford. At the time, Ford were making some great TV commercials for the Ute................





The following were made later, no way these would fly in todays PC culture.

Always loved this one. "Falcon Ute! It's Unbelievable!"



"Must be stuck in third..................
"





And while we are on Falcon Ute, the following is my favorite, only because of the last couple of seconds when that Boss 260 started to roar..................



Quiz Time - Can anyone pick what's incorrect about the Phantom Purple XR8 used in this commercial?
