Dodge to Dogpile on Ford

You may have seen the recent SoCalTrucks.com article about Chevy ripping on Ford during the Super Bowl. Well, the word on the street is that Dodge is about to pile on Ford too. Adage.com is reporting that Chrysler will run a national ad that starts with: What if you were to take away horsepower, torque and warranty coverage from a Ram? “Well,” says the voice-over, “you’d end up with a Ford F-150.”

Ouch. First, Chevy questions Ford’s durability by implying it can’t make it through the apocolypse. Now, Dodge is telling the world that Ford’s are a 2nd rate product next to Chrysler. Talk about beating a man when he’s down! We don’t feel that bad for Ford though, they ripped on Chevy and Chrysler when they got bailed out by the U.S. government. They just didn’t directly call out the two companies.

Whether we agree with the ads is irrelevent. What matters is that Chevy and Dodge are throwing punches! Will Ford respond? We don’t know, but if they do, we’ll let you know.
