He said Ford's Volvo brand would continue advertising in gay publications. I never thought that Volvo's was perferred by gays as the vehicle of choose. I wonder what BMW and Lexus would say about that.http://www.gaywheels.com/

I think Ford's gay market share has been dropping for awhile... ever since they stopped making the Probe.

In addition to the Probe there was the A$$fire, the (rump) Ranger, as well as the fore mentioned Torea$$... I guess the (rump) Ranger is still available... :rolleyes:
In some european countries the Focus is pronounced 'F*&# us'. Does that count?

I have a feeling that this thread is (for good reason) about to be :censor: ...

Just to get serious for a moment.

Why do they make announcements about such things?

Couldn't they just quietly drop the advertising in those publications, and spend the $ in more "appropriate" magazines, if that's what they want to do?

I mean, why kick up a fuss and give agenda driven factions something to howl about. It seems to me, they managed to anger folks on both sides of the issue, when saying nothing would have allowed the change to go unnoticed.

What can they be thinking? :dunno:

Probe! Who managed to get that name approved for a vehicle? On a serious note, I just saw Sigfried and Roy in a commercial hawking the new Ford Poop Chute.

The perferred cars in this area for the trendy gay dudes are Volvos, Acuras, and BMWs. The budget minded gay dudes will perfer a Honda or Toyota.

I can't think of any Ford product a gay dude would drive short of maybe the Lincoln LS.

Ask me how I know? ;)

Will someone please return the word 'Gay' to it's original and proper meaning?

I really don't care if Ford or any other automaker advertises in a homosexual oriented magazine, as long as they aren't creating 'special' advertisements.
Surely the same ads used everywhere else for everyone else are good enough.

You mean like a trunk bib?
(you know, so you don't scratch the rear end as you're bending over?)

Perhaps questionable alignment specs, to prevent the car from going straight?

How about meNUDO leather seats?

Just like Marauders came with FDH2, BMD0, CRD0, CRD1 and MAV2 calibration codes, maybe it would use YMCA?

Blow-through forced induction?
