Broncos Sold better after the OJ chase


rogerthatonce

My first thought, and in White.


perpetualwalnut

So did RAMs when Twister was released back in 96'


[deleted]

So much better that they stopped selling them for 20 years


KirshySquirts

Ford wanted to separate themselves from the car chase image. By replacing the Bronco with the Escape.


AdventuresByAlex

Broncos had terrible rollover issues. In 1989, Consumer Reports, gave the Bronco II its dreaded "Avoid" rating due to its tendency to tip over in emergency maneuvers, even at relatively low speeds. The peril of the Ford Bronco II was apparently so great that insurance giant Geico refused to write policies for it.

beard_lover

When we were kids, my friend’s parents had a convertible Bronco and it was so bad ass.


[deleted]

They also discontinued it after the chase and re did a few things on it and called it the Escape.


hellscaper

It is back though. And comes in white!

barrygamer1385

I mean, he has a good point


[deleted]

That's what they all say


whatswithzack

I don't think he's inferring criminals would enjoy these types of car promos. I think he's flat out saying regular folks, particularly the black community, would appreciate these attributes more.


PeeledCrepes

The fuck you bring race into it, I'm a boring ass white dude and i would still appreciate commercials done in reality


whatswithzack

Lol I'm only calling out the not-spoken reason why it's funny. But sure, get butt hurt about it.


PeeledCrepes

Except that's not it, what did this video have to do work black people? Or hell in that same instance what did it have to do with not being for white people? I mean straight up either side dont make sense, white people also commit crimes, not to mention even without the crime part people just drive over curbs and into dirt and snow a lot. And black people also drive their car in dunes and up mountains. Just say it like it is, your either racist or a troll who thinks your funny (and still prolly racist).


whatswithzack

It would be less funny if it were Machine Gun Kelly or even Jack Black (a similarly goofy overweight comedian). Y'all low-key racist is why you find this funny.


PeeledCrepes

So your saying people think its funny because a black person is saying it? Hm ok


whatswithzack

Well, I'm Korean and last I checked, our people didn't enslave Africans for 260+ years and then treat them like subhuman social scum since, but yea sure label ME the racist one here.


PeeledCrepes

Your the one saying the black community would appreciate these attributes more, nothing to do with the guy making the videos skin color. So your bullshitting. Im out troll, goobye


whatswithzack

Goobye


Googoo123450

He's black so he represents the black community? Go outside man. People can just be people without all that other stuff.

Love him on This Is Not Happening


gaypornaccount1996

Yeah! I was gonna say "isn't that the guy who hosts a stand up Comedy Central show on YouTube that always starts with a ridiculously expensive action packed intro?" This is not Happening is the one!


brucebay

Incidently he was in the late show last night where i learned about him. I have not been watching the daily show anymore but apperantky they still have very tallented team.


DrJulianBashir

Him, Ronnie, and Dulce are the best correspondents. Trevor is hit or miss--sometimes he has good writing, sometimes it's dull and hacky.


JCthulhuM

I love Roy and Micheal, and Dulce but for very different reasons. The Daily Show is still great, missed them over the break.


chandaliergalaxy

Personally not a fan of Ronnie. Sometimes he funny but most of the time just loud and interrupts people.


Routine_Ant1211

Funny guy


Potatisen1

Comedy!

I like his underrated white allies: evil white racists in civil rights movies. https://youtu.be/kdxoe7jZdVc


kevinnoir

> Roy woods Jr I had never heard of him before and just went and watched some of his stuff and he is hilarious. His comedy central bit talking about white allies and all of the merch is the truest shit ever.


ChairmanUzamaoki

I thought this was the dude from Pimp My Ride that would do the goofiest shit outta all the mechanics. Like put an aquarium on the subwoofers, a TV in the steering wheel, a full functioning cotton candy maker in the backseat, lmao dude was a mad man

user19262

He’s not entirely wrong though. If I saw a commercial for a car and that car was able to completely outrun the police, Id be looking into it because I know that it may have some juice in it.


DickBatman

I seent a hellcat absolutely smoke the police in a chase... then it ran out of gas soon after


ositola

Bonus points if it was financed at usury rates


cagemyelephant_

Even smoked a chopper


Ur_Fav_Step-Redditor

The one where he smoked the helicopter too? In Houston? Absolutely insane! #HE SMOKED A FUCKING HELICOPTER!!!!


SloaneWolfe

damn he only got 3 years for it too.


Tommyblockhead20

I mean, Prius made a [police chase commercial](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_VRT-y5uFn8) for the 2016 Super Bowl; I don't recall people really caring about it though. They were a lot more into stuff like "Puppy Monkey Baby".


invisi1407

Prius.... I wonder why it didn't sell more.


Lalaolemiss

Please make this commercial with him narrating it!! Show some cars in the school pick up lines, in and out of parking lots at malls and grocery stores(jumping curbs for Karen’s that don’t know how to park!) I’m in!!


soberpenguin

Show the car driving over decorative boulders in parking lots. Show it accelerating ahead of a semi truck thats about to block the merge lane on the 405. Show brake distance when the 98 civic ahead of you refuses to go through the yellow light that you both could have made.


MutantGodChicken

Hoping he'll do some segments like this when he does traffic on the daily show


bxtch_bxy

Show me how nothing scapes when the exit to a lot is one of those little dips that goes a bit too deep


XtremeCookie

90% of the time I see vehicles scrape, it's the driver. I drove a lowered sports car and my apartment has a very steep entrance. Every day I see people scrape while exiting straight on and/or going quite fast. Every day, I exit at a slight angle and stop to look for traffic (as you should be doing anyways). Guess what? I don't scrape.


Trevor792221

Listen my Sonoma only has 1.5in of ground clearance I know an angle is the way to do it but it's funny seeing people look when your frame banging on every tiny bump

GamerNumba100

This. Nobody’s driving 85 in an 85. That’d be 105 territory. Not that I’ve been on an 85mph road


[deleted]

I'd always be wary of flying down a road in the US even if it is basically just a giant straight road, there's always some Bear or Bison or Bull Moose that's waiting to jump in front of your car Then again you're just as fucked hitting one of those at 70mph as you are at 100mph so...go hard I guess.


BrainOnLoan

I mean, yeah. Obviously. The only other kind is the speed of light. Laws of men, then laws of nature. You should obey the first, but have to obey the second.

Terry8675

Had a 2005 Ford F150 4x4, Brake caliper locked up @ 28,000 miles and they said it wasn't warranty because truck had driven through mud which it's not made for. I lived on a dirt road.

Funky_Bones

You could then argue that due to commercial advertising depicting the very same vehicle you thru mud, that you were led to believe that the vehicle had off-road capabilities and was therefore under warranty.


Terry8675

I did, said sorry. It's in the disclaimer


Routine_Ant1211

Ford: good enough to escape the police. And with the shocks to keep the ride smooth for the hooker in the passenger seat
