One of, if not the best, commericals Ford ever did. :cheers
 
Thanks. Very touching particularly now that the politicians seem to be trashing the country and all that made it great.

Excellent. Also, loving the new avatar!! :thumbsup
 
This commercial represents the truest form of Americana. Thanks for sharing.

Next time you see a soldier, thank him/her for their service.
 
Why have I not seen this before? I suppose due to the length is it internet only, but what a wonderful, POWERFUL, ad. No schmaltz, no hokiness, just substance that anyone with a love for parent or child could relate to.

BTW, is the '69 a 428 SCJ car? Looked like the fake hood from my brother's Mach 1, which should eliminate the 428 (I think), but couldn't tell from the brief shot under the hood if it was a CJ or not.

It was shown on one evening as I recall on prime time (9pm). It obviously would have cost a fortune to air it on any repeated basis. Notwithstanding, I would take it a thousand times over the low-cost/low-impact internet approach. It might actually get butts in seats; the psych/demographic of the viewer of that commercial likely has more disposable $$ than websurfer dude.
