Been working on a customer's pc all night and had the TV running. In about 8 hours I saw a total of 23 Ford Truck Ads, about 4 Focus ad's and a bunch of stuff about erectile dysfunction and cholestrol whatever...

If Mustang sales are down from this time last year then why aren't they being promoted. The new 08 sales year is pretty young so where's the push?

Wouldn't everybody like a bright shiny new GT under the tree this year??

Apparently Lexus and Mercedes think so...

 

I think that Ford knows that a goodly number of Mustang drivers "put the ponys in the Barn" for winter, and more likely to need to get a deal on a new 4x4 to make it through the adverse weather. I am one of the few that actually drive it though out the winter. Of course, if the snow gets too deep, I have to "liberate" my wife's Explorer.

 

Funny thing is, I can't remember a commercial since the one with the ghostly morphing old into new mustang running around some dark industrial setting.

I think that was like last year.

 

I saw one the other day with a yellow stang. And of course, there was one of my favorite where mike rowe (the announcer) says "since the ford mustang has no competition..."

 

This one is the best!!!

My Favorite!! Maybe Ford doesn't think they need Mustang Comercials right now?

 

A lot of trucks go in the wintertime and the Focus is brand new.

 

I still like the "If you build it, he will come" and the Fargo commercial.

 

Awesome commercial.

I think you don't see so many Mustang commercials because it doesn't really need any. The Mustang sells itself. I know I didn't need a commercial to convince me to buy one.

In fact, I think there is something quietly confident about not having or needing commercials. And also in not having the word "Mustang" stamped into our bumper, because our cars are such a cultural icon that nobody needs to read the label to know it's a Mustang. Our cars driving and existing on the roads are enough advertisement alone.

THAT would have to be my favorite mustang commercial.

 

I only wish someone at Ford would play this across the Nation!

 

Still dig kelly's.....

See now those are all cool, and I haven't seen any of them before. I have satellite TV, you'd think I would have caught one of them!

Noooo, I get to see stupid truck ads and Hyundais...

In this market I wouldn't count on the quality of the car selling itself. The airwaves are too littered with competition to trust that kind of promotion.

 

Saw a sweet one last night... Ford pimpin' a yellow, hood-scooped, chrome-bullitt wheeled GT. Very nice, aggressive lookin' Mustang.

 

I wish ford would hear us out and gather up some people with modded mustangs and some driving vids (maybe some race vids) and bunch them up for a mustang commercial, then at the end push the new stang. Would be an awesome commercial, i know chevy might be doing one for the new camero

 

It's because so many people drive mustangs that they advertise themself. Ford Focus, F150 and the new Ford Edge arnt around as much so they need avertising. I can probably spot 2-3 mustangs going to work and another 2-3 on the way home.

 

I just saw one yesterday with a grabber orange gt, it was pretty nice

 

Ya, that's cool!!!

 

They are going to do a re-design for the Mustang in the 2010 model year.

 

same cars...not fair.
