The Ford Ranger Add

[Isuzumu]

Before I get carried away I believe the Ranger is a good vehicle, not as good as the D.Max of course  . But what is with  this add about G forces with weights hanging off the front and rear of the vehicle? It is a little hard to see where the weight is attached to the front of the Ranger. If you want to know how strong the Ranger is why do they not just  stop it from turning and see what happens. Nothing and I can be corrected would ripped to bits. 4.7 G science  of truck, sounds a bit like "spirit of truck"  and I am pretty sure that mob would not come up with that scenario.
Ok the pants gave been pulled down ready for a flogging

Some creative ad exec thought it was a good idea, maybe he should have studied science instead of art.

Just waiting for Bird to come along, i am sure he posted about this the other day. Who has any idea what goes through some marketing departments.

WHAT you trying to tell me we should question what we see & are told on the Telly       lt must be true cause we can see it for ourselves               
l thought that spinning ute was a safety devise to stop people parking too close at Bumblings   .

Have a close look at the ad, there is a bloody great metal frame under the Ford.......not even sure those stupid balls are even hanging from the so called "truck"

As a ranger owner I scratch my head.

[Bobsan]

The add works, everybody is talking about it.

When it comes to vehicle performance with special mention to duel cab utes i heard a great quote from a dealer no less

" the laws of marketing now far outweigh the laws of physics"

I wouldn't believe those supposed weights are actually something heavy either.
Look at the size of the chain, Hammerlocks and how they are secured to the spinning vehicle.
They could do that Advert with 10Kg. weights.

I'm just annoyed them using the term " truck " , i dont see no Louisville in the ad.

other then this thread, nobody I know is talking about it. The only Ranger talk my friends have mentioned lately, is the new engine a mates old man just got in his under warranty.

10 kg weight times 4 . g's is only 47 kg. The ad makes no sense.  4 .7g's means nothing unless you know what the weight is.

When I seen this post I thought it was going to be a more important issue, like,
Who is that girl in the Ford ad? Big issue these days. I would love to share a truck with her.

It's just an ad....

[DaveR]

Anyone got a link for the ad?
sorry, don't watch the telle, found 4 ads for science of truck.

[#jonesy]

Never paid attention to it before. Just assumed the weights were attwached to the tow bar and the front chassis to demonstrate the strength of the chassis.

But attached to frame the car is sitting means zero.

Dear I say it without upsetting too many
