/QUOTE/

Ford have been shooting an add for their new ute this week.
The basic concept of the add is that a couple of blokes go riding with thier yamaha's on the back of the New Ford ute. One bike wont start so they end up racing the one bike that does start agaist the ute. An excavator was brought in to modify section of track and paddock so that the ute could be jumped. Tomorrow they should wind up shooting By jumping one of the bikes into a dam. Who know's what the cut add will look like or when it's due to be released but should make good viewing.

Robbie Marshall's riding one of the bikes and there's a couple of other hotshots out riding for the shoot.

If Ford had class they'd have used KTM......

(Kidding - the concept sounds great)

The ad sounds good, cant wait to see it.

I agree with KTM's as well AP, they could of used Russell Ingalls since he's sponsored by them.

Yeah, I didn't even think of the Russell Ingall link until mentioned above. That would have been GREAT - Russ racing an RTV on his KTM.

Is that an ad for the RTV or for the standard Falcon ute.

FordHawk

It should be for the Pursuit!!! But I think it will be for the RTV, that would make sense after all.

I reckon its a bloody ripper of an ad!!! About time the marketing people got their acts together and made some great ads for a change. But having said that i think the new GT ad is a bit dull.....
