I now realize just how stupid this question really was. Kinda like asking about prices or release dates, right? Only Ford marketing types would know the answer...and they're not talking. :angry:

I dont recall ever seeing a commercial for a mustang specifically (by itself) before.. But I think I have seen ads that have a mustang in it along with other ford cars... Anyone else remember?

Not a bad target audience, they showed the FORD GT during the Super Bowl.

I was wondering the same thing. I can't recall seeing an ad for a Mustang in a very long time. Maybe in the background for a dealer, but not specifically for a Mustang. They are usually dealer ads, not Ford ads, anyway.

I am in advertising and I spoke with one of Fords westcoast P.R. people a couple of weeks ago, She told me that the ads would not run until sometime after job 1 and that the magazines would not be able to print any reviews until Sept. However all of the magazines and other media outlets who are going to review the cars have had the cars availible to them for several months.

I can confirm this after interviewing Hau Thai-Tang. He said the same thing.

Just cause you got to talk to him doesn't make you better than me!!
Actually, it might, but that's the jealousy talking.

Sometime during the first two weeks in August, I'll be back in the states during that time. We don't have commericals on the TV here in Iceland so it "must" happen while I'm home.

There is no way the ads will run before September. Everything I have heard was more like November. I'm guessing Ford wants to hold out until November... maybe let a fe Mustangs drive around and have people looking and wondering what that is? Saying, I have to have one. But, like mentioned earlier, nobody knows, but Ford. And they ain't tellin'.
