Mike Rowe and Ford were at my College today.. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

MikeL · 12-03-2009, 05:07 PM

So I show up to my college for my Math class and I see these RVs and cones and some brand new Fords. I figure a local dealership sponsored something.. NOPE... they just have a bunch of new Ford Focus's. Well turns out they were filming a commercial for Ford and Mike Rowe was there talking to students and probably said something fancy on camera about Ford. So I got to be interviewed and they ask me "Would I drive a Ford Focus givin the chance?" My quick reply was "Nope but ill take a Camaro."

I don't think they liked my answer but I got a few laughs from some friends, they then said "Thanks for your time" and interviewed some other students.

I love Mike Rowe but I hate that he's a Ford spokesman.

Would I drive a Focus? Maybe. Would I own one? No.

I would have done it. But... find a nice wall somewhere and crash into it. Hop out and look right into the camera and say, "Driving a Focus... it's a dirty job."

It is kind of funny how Ford hired the guy that is always shoveling sh*t or

to advertise for them.
