Is it just me or what? All I can think of is the movie “Dazed & Confused“. Otherwise this is a cute commercial.

I just love those cavemen. But this one is actually one of my wife’s favorites.

If I didn’t know better, I would worry about her running off to marry Don LaFontaine…

Honestly I think this was brilliant. They pulled the old Rock Em Sock Em robots out thin air. It really brings back memories of the only toy I never wanted and never owned. I think I’ll go buy a Ford.

While I don’t plan to buy another anytime soon, this one is pretty convincing, or at least it was…

At today’s prices, that’s like seventy something miles per gallon. On the other hand, assuming this commercial was made before 1979 ( I bet it was – If someone can date please leave a comment), it ain’t that great. I found this site, that only goes back to 1979. It’s the earliest I could find, probably because I am just to lazy to look more. According to it, the price of gas then was around 75 cents a gallon. At three cents a mile, that comes out to 25 miles per gallon. My Ford Focus gets close to 35, so that don’t sound so great. I know prices were higher right before 1979 due to the big oil embargo, but I bet this commercial predates the embargo. So what’s up with this????
