Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 In case you are a car enthusiast and have not seen the new Jaguar ad here is a parody of the ad that shows some of the actual ad. No cars in the ad just weird people. Looks like the new CEO of Jaguar just sank the company. 7 1 Quote
Rye Miles #13621 Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 A car commercial with no car how genius!!! 😂😂😂😂 I seen the real commercial, what the h**l are they thinking? Are they trying to outdo Bud Light? Well congratulations you did!’ 2 Quote
Cypress Sun Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 I don't know why anyone buys one of those POS's anyway. If I wanted a vehicle that is notorious for electrical problems, I'd buy on old Triumph or a Jeep. 2 4 Quote

Historically companies that try this style of advertising have been sinking for a good, long while and "going woke" is little more than a cynical Hail Mary attempt to find new customers Quote
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted December 2, 2024 Author Posted December 2, 2024 Bud Light was not sinking. Just dumb leftist senior employees. Kinda like the senior vice president of Disney that claimed her two kids were gay and trans and that all Disney product would have some "queer" in it. Unfortunately it is not just sinking companies. Walmart tried it and they are not sinking. They just canned their DEI division. 1 Quote

When a company has a product that stops selling (be it razors, beer, cars or whatever) and they don't ask themselves WHY it stopped selling and work to make a better product that people will want to buy again but instead decide to toss their previous customers to the side and market to "the woke crowd"(sic) it shows me that they never really cared about their customers, and only saw them as a revenue source to be drained dry and discarded 2 Quote

Horace Patootie, SASS #35798 Posted December 2, 2024 Posted December 2, 2024 Way back, when Jaguar WAS Jaguar, we knew two brothers who were doctors. They both had Jaguars. One was an XKE which was my favorite Jag. The other was a XJ6 which was nice also. The XKE was frequently in a local shop for tuning. But what a beautiful car. Horace 1 Quote
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted December 2, 2024 Author Posted December 2, 2024 As is typical with Bud Light, Disney and others, the Director of Jaguar defended the ad by attacking those who do not like it as being intolerant. In a recent interview with the Financial Times, Jaguar Land Rover managing director Rawdon Glover defended the brand relaunch and denied the ad was meant to send a “woke” message. While Glover praised the attention around the campaign as “very positive,” he said he was disappointed by the “level of vile hatred and intolerance” shown by social media commentators towards the models in the video. He claimed the ad’s message had been lost “in a blaze of intolerance.” Quote
Big Sage, SASS #49891 Life Posted December 2, 2024 Posted December 2, 2024 I'll never buy any car manufactured across the POND east of New York. Other than VW, parts are impossible to get and cost a lot more than they should. Quote

Burt Blade, #25657 Posted December 9, 2024 Posted December 9, 2024 I was looking to buy a fun-to-drive medium SUV. The F-Pace I test drove was that. When I heard they were dumping all internal combustion engine production for electrics, I realized they were corporately insane, and crossed them off my list. Just a matter of time before they either did something epic stupid, or just end support for prior-bought ICE vehicles. "Because". Wound up with a something quite fun, and made here. And then I saw the abomination that Jag now plans to push. What I now dub the Gay-Type. It's something you expect to be driven by the Pink Panther's less successful idiot cousin. 1 Quote

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted December 10, 2024 Posted December 10, 2024 Very rich people who want to take over the whole planet... and screaming idiots who think they are smarter than anyone else with no evidence that that is so. Quite often they are the same people, and way too often they have been elected to some government office, from President clear down to HOA and Neighborhood Watch people. Follow the money and you'll find them. 1 Quote
