Hubby just watched this advert and he said they have changed it. They have changed the tow scene.

Haven't changed itbon our network.
was on earlier this evening and the same hero advert.

Think I might buy a Colorado after seeing what it can do.

It will be a slow process to replace it. They haven't broken any rules other than common sense in the ad. The ad will have been booked in on high rotation so they won't pull it and the booking fees. An edit will take awhile and then needs to be redistributed to the various stations.

Saw this tonight, looks like they've digitally altered the tow ball into some sort of recovery point...

You're right , I just saw it and although it is quick , it looks like a yellow tow hitch or something they've tried to make it into .

The updated ad I saw had a subtitle 'rated shackle and chain used for recovey'

Yep, Seen the same message last night but you have to be quick to catch it. the writing is almost translusant.

Cheers, Chris
