forget the slogan, how about ford using Mike Rowe to say the slogan, that definately had to increase sales...hes popular as hell, especially with the crowd that buys f-150-f-350 and s. dutys

oh man using mike rowe was a smart move on fords part, if u watch dirty jobs they show his f-150 in every new episode and its always hauling/towing something. the last episode i seen he was using a small sledge hammer and pounding a oyster on his tailgate and then he says "man thats one tuff truck"

"THE BEST NEVER REST" I havent heard that in quite a while, my 86 F150 has mud flaps on it that say that.

Personally my favorite is "Like A Rock". I think chevy put alot of thought into that one, it fits their trucks perfectly, LIKE A ROCK on the side of the road

I bet that song made Bob Seger a lot of money over the years anyway.

The last one I remember for Toyota is "I love what you do for me, Toyota!"

I have no idea what they use now.

Nissan has that stupid "Shift_" whatever thing that I never got.

No offense to the musician, but I like Mike Rowe more than Toby Keith (remember his deal with Ford?). Rowe just seems more of down-to-Earth, not quite so rich guy...which isn't completely true, but he gives the image.

I always wanted to see a Nissan ad that said "Shift_And It Will Go Faster"

I agree. To me Mike Rowe is a much better spokesperson than Toby Keith is. When did Chevy change to American Revolution and start playing the song "This is my Country" ever commercial? I don't think it was that long ago but times going faster these days.

I thought the new slogan for SD was BOLD MOVES.

Is anybody offended by the similarity of the solid steel plac that Toyota is using following a comercial for the new Tundra and the one that Ford has been dropping following a comercial for their trucks? Hmmmmm!
