Thanks KB, although, now that I have seen it, am wondering if I should be saying thanks?

Nonsense like that is why I don't watch the telle, that's embarrassing.

There was no discussion here regarding the ad itself, real or not, but my wife was very disappointed that the "ford chick" ( her words not mine ) was not in it. It would seem she has a bit of a thing for her....

Must work in some people. After we got off the barge from Fraser there was one stuck bogged to its axles at inskip. He had been trying to get out for 2 hours. We went past unhooked the camper and went back to help the poor bugger. Snatched him out and after talking to the bloke he said he bought this car because they don't get stuck due to all the electronics. When I told him he had to turn all that crap off in sand he didn't know what to say.
He was towing an old van had only let tyres down to 30psi and all his recovery gear was not up to any sort of a standard.
Anyway hope he learnt a few things that day.

did you order 2wd or 4wd versions?...Triple M radio host Luke Bradnam mentioned this arvo he just picked up his brand new Ranger ute on Friday arvo, sent pics of it to a work colleague at channel 9 who then asks him why he bought a 2wd version? He had no idea he had or that they even made a 2wd version, he wanted a 4wd for going to Fraser and Moreton Islands etc...lol

If you have close look by stop/starting the add the weights are not attached directly to the chassis but to a supporting rail assembly underneath
The other thing VERY wrong is the building that the so called testing is being done in would be blown to bits if anything happened to let go.
And I want to know where the ford chick is too
