If they are having a contest with Pontiac, then Pontiac wins hands down. They suck.

Re: Ford Announces New Corporate Slogan: "Ford. Drive One"

It does sound like it came from the same braniacs who thought of "Pontiac Is Car."

A perfect example of less is more. One digit less infact.



P.S this is Holden's old slogan.

Quote:
Ford. Drive One
Or not, which ever. (unless its a Bulitt ed. Mustang)

Honestly, its not to bad. Kinda reminds me of "Have you driven a Ford.....latley?" Which was hugely popular. Also sounds similar to Saturns "Rethink". Both are MUCH better than "Pontiac is Car".....***whispers, except for the sport truck we have comming out***

Well it looks like they've pretty much given up competing with GM for best cars, so they might as well go toe to toe with them on lame slogans.

Re: Ford Announces New Corporate Slogan: "Ford. Drive One"

once again, how about build a better car than the competition and the slogan won't matter.

Re: Ford Announces New Corporate Slogan: "Ford. Drive One"

Hey, give um a break! It's way better than nissens "Shift Retard" slogan
toyotanics: "moving f*gwads or
GM's boner: This isn't your grandfather's Oldsmobile.

Actually if they market this new slogan the way I anticipate harping on their greatly improved quality and show off their new models such as Flex, eco-hybrid Fusion/& Milan too and Fiesta, this will be much, much more sucessful than Bold Moves.

Re: Ford Announces New Corporate Slogan: "Ford. Drive One"

Wonder how many hundreds of man-hours were spent on this critical decision?
