Ford Has Power Names Behind Them

It's amazing how many good representatives ford has behind them for instance:
Chip Foose (Overhauling)
Mike Rowe (Dirty Jobs)
Mike Holmes (Holmes on Homes)
That Country Singer
Smash Lab Always drive Fords
I'm probly missing a name or two. Ford just knows the proper people to promote there amazing trucks no wonder there always on top and will remain on top of the truck game

I think the country singer you are thinking of is Allan Jackson. In Alberta They use Paul Brandt, a local country star.

I'd drive a new Ford if they gave it to me. Why would I drive another brand if Ford gave me one. So I guess I'm not to impressed with multi millionaires driving FREE FORDS while the rest of us can't hardly afford them.

its like the Anaheim Ducks paying celebrities to go to their games to try and get attendance up, same deal just pay these guys to drive the trucks or just give them the trucks and then hope that people will follow their lead with those vehicles, most celebrities do pay for lots of the stuff they get done with their own vehicles. There are 2 Chip Foose edition F150's at my local dealer right now though, and they look pretty sweet!

Do you REALLY believe that all these spokespeople are out there cause they truly believe in the product?

Up here there are quite a few native reserves. I have heard from a pretty good source that the local ford dealer gives the chiefs of a few of the larger reserves a brand new ford truck. I guess alot of the people in the reserve go and aquire one, just because the cheif is driving one.
