Ford should just respond with an ad about how GM couldn't even survive the recent recession without bankrupcy and a Government bailout, so there's no way they stand any chance with any supernatural calamity.
Would have thought it still funny and avoided offending any particular brand if they just would have said, "he was driving the competition." or he wasn't driving a Chevy. Just felt dumb and wrong to say he didn't make it because he was driving a Ford.But everyone has got their opinions on what is the better vehicle.
"GM is directly responsible for why we are not driving usable affordable electric cars today"
Uhhh... what? You're going to have to elaborate on that one. I know all about the EV1, but please explain how the development of the Volt resulted in you not being able to drive "usable affordable electric cars." The development of the Volt started long before GM needed a bailout (read: government-assisted bankruptcy). Don't blame GM for poor decisions of politicians. Besides, the old GM doesn't exist anymore and its old leaders are gone. It's literally a new company now after coming out of bankruptcy reorganization.
Never underestimate a Redneck Fanboy and his love of Ford or Chevy. I guess you also believe that those were real frogs falling out of the sky and that that was a video from the future showing the end of the world.
Depends on where you live. In my home town it was a lot of older chevys. Then I got a summer job I had in college, that sent me all over the mid west, I noticed that some areas had a lot of Fords other Chevy's. Not a lot of Dodges though...
Throwing my two cents in, I've owned/driven both a Ford Ranger and a Chevy S-10. Both were used and older models, and driven hard once purchased. The Ford seemed to have issues on a less regular basis, maybe once every year, but whenever it had an issue it was a "call the tow truck, put it in the shop, be without it for a week or two" issue. The S-10 on the other hand seemed to have an issue once every six months, but when it did it was usually a "I'll have to drive it to the shop on my off day" issue, or something I could fix myself even with limited vehicle repair knowledge.
Wow, did people really do that? I'd like to see a link to an article talking about people driving their car into the ocean, because that would be insane. I feel like they wouldn't get very far, because the sand would be tough to drive on. Maybe they drove in a rocky part of the ocean in the northwest, or maybe they launched themselves off a dock or something.
The more I think about this, the less I believe someone actually tried to drive into the ocean because of a commercial. Did you just make that story up to prove a point?

I don't always live through apocalypses, but when I do, I want to do it in a GM truck.

Instead of whining that a rival poo-poo'ed your product in a commercial, why not make a better commercial as a rebuttal? Compete, you lazy bastards.

They did nothing wrong. The whole thing was fantasy and only idiots would complain about something said in a made-up world.

I HATE Ford! They almost killed me with a recall item and then slapped me in the face by refusing to pay for the fixing! DEMONS!

You sure like caps and typos.
Hey, um, did you sue them for assault for literally slapping you in the face, or what?

I just watched it, it took me a second to get it, but i don't see nothing wrong with it.

you also missed the flying saucer from the last indiana jones movie.
ford should quit whining. i thought it was pretty funny and i loved all the stuff they snuck into the background of the shoot.

And there is no proof that they don't. Too bad you missed the humor in the commercial.
