A work collegue has told me I am apparently infact GEN Y
and as such most of the 80's ad's appeared to work on me and are still like I saw them yesterday. I look back and laugh at the crap we watched growing up as an Aussie kid!

My Dad sold new Fords for years (Among other brands) so the old Ford ads always make me smile. Seeing the fairlane again brings a tear to the eye!

I think this was my favourite for years because I enjoyed watching the worst Austraian Falcon ever made get crushed to the carrier deck. (Owning 2 of them, I am allowed to say that!)

Alan, funny you mention Barbera...... I was an ANZ bank customer for years and found them usually to be EXACTLY like her, hence why i haven't used them for over 10 years![/url]

Not truck related, but my favorite commercials are Sam Kekovich's lamb commercials.

I'm not arguing with you. I'm just explaining why I'm right.

our aluminum only has one "i" in it. no sense in adding in all those extra letters. it's not like we're a bunch of frenchmen.

the point of aluminum was always to make things lighter. Lighter by one "I" in this case
