If I were alive back then as a married man (or at all, for that matter), I would have felt threatened by this commercial. Probably attended lesbian housewife parties!
As a fashion designer I’m so inspired by the 50's. I love that people made the effort, take this woman although an actress you could never imagine her type ever leaving the house looking a mess. Today I think people are too lazy with self image, imagining these women’s reactions to today’s UGG boots :|. I think there’s a lot to learn from this decade.
There was a time when people whom lived in the suburbs dressed nice and had respect, these days those who live in the suburbs are redneck bogans who raise feral kids and are considered less fortunate than those whom live in the inner cities.
"Why not buy 31 cars? One for every day of the month.
What's a carbon footprint??"
Respect.
I hate it when women (or men) like this, who look pretty and sound smart with an intelligent voice, promote stuff like this. My classmates are starting to get their own cars and I'm like WTF, because they're like the ones who think they're smart but showing ignorance to cars and their CO2 emissions is just arogant and dumb. Respect to you for that uplifting (for me) comment.
Even if global warming was 100% revealed to be false today, and everyone believed it because it was true, we'd still have to change our ways. Let's say that I believe it's false right now, we'd still have to change. Why? It's because our whole economy and world system depends mostly on oil, which of course is a non renewable recource. If this system were sustainable, oil would be cheap forever, but it isn't, and we have to change to other fuels. Do you agree?
@Gaznugget I can assure you that we will never, EVER run out of oil. When was the last time we ran out of ANY commodity? Answer: NEVER! The reality is that whenever something becomes scarce, the price goes up, and this attracts smart and creative people to figure out ways of making, or finding more of it. More often than not, this ultimately lowers the price. If every oil well in the world dried up tomorrow, we STILL wouldn't run out of oil, because oil can be easily synthesized from coal.
Did you have to research that from a denial website? You took ages to reply to my comment, you must have been looking for an answer for ages that would suit you.
No we won't ever run out but we will reach peak oil soon and prices will skyrocket. I know what the goal of people like you is; you want this way of life to continue for your lifetime. You couldn't care less if oil ran out, as long as it was after you died. Watch "The End Of Suburbia" to know the truth denier.
Dave you fool you fool! She can now leave the home and talk with other men. Idiot and now your nuclear family has exploded. Yes see anybody anytime you whore.
I like how she gets the dinky one and her husband gets the brand spankin' new one. Good thank jesus for the feminist movement. It is entertaining though to see how different it really was back then compared to now. Today the wife would be like "screw this" and slam his ass with a divorce and then claim the car as her asset. :)
well its his money he worked to gain. the unjustice here is that women at that time were not given many oportunities to work so they had to be house wives and could not afford a car and that i understand but the divorce thing is mean if i worked hard for a carm with my money from my job i desserve it if a wife of mine wants one then she can buy it with her money from her job women and men should be treated as equals not treat wichever more nicely than the other And that is what feminist must see
True, but women in the 1950's were often not allowed to have the same jobs as men. Even in jobs that were open to them, women were payed far less than men. Nowadays, a woman can get a well-paying job and save up to buy her own car. Back then, however, it was different.
@samigirl22 Agreed. Now men can shop around indefinitely. It's so much more fun being a player. No commitment. No binding contract. Finally, thanks to you gals, the playing field is wide open. Love -- love it. Thank you and bless you, little ladies.
Some people might think that the solution to being a virtual prisoner in one's own home isn't to get a second car, but to move the hell out of the suburbs and into a neighbourhood where you can actually go somewhere without needing to drive. Or maybe never to have moved to the suburbs in the first place...
I don't think this perky houswife would follow your suggestions. She's pretty happy with that second car-everything is just fine. I'm so happy she can make those PTA meetings.
no it actually started jumping up the scales 20 years ago when scientists with an adgenda imagined the hockey stick graph. global warming does not exist
This was a time when the family counted and most children were mannerly. Mom stayed home and dad was the bread winner. How uncomplicated it seemed to be back then. Your neighborhood knew who you were and would correct you or take you home for misbehaving.
@billeybop Uncomplicated and oppressive. Mom being forced to stay at home. Poverty being ignored. Minorities under the oppressive and unjust reign of White supremacy. (ever notice how African Americans were RARELY depicted in media?) The 50s was an era where America refused to acknowledge the growing issues at home. Instead they looked for luxury and suburbia. Sure your community was great... if you lived in a white neighborhood in the suburbs, and fit into social standards.
@TheUnwrittenWriter I grew up in a government project we had little to nothing and a tv was a swell if you had one, which we seldom did. My neighborhood was integrated and many of my buds were African American. We were all poor and were doin' our best to enjoy childhood. My mother raised 7 of us and we did not know of racism until we were older and started to spread out. It's sad to think people can hate based on skin color or religious beliefs. I'm white but understand the paint you felt.
@TheUnwrittenWriter Sorry, but it sounds like you weren't around in the '50's. I grew up in Chicago, in the city, not suburbs, back in the '50's. Every era has it's share of both good and evil, and only one who is so cocksure of the injustices of another era could be so blatantly wrong. Sometimes it's just better to chill over things you have no understanding of. But youth is always wasted on the young.
now people in general have more liberty and choices, which they hadnt inthe 50s
. also, there was less crime, drug addictions, dysfunctional families, divorce and youth crime and gangs back then ..... mm looks like a correlationship right?
@billeybop Yes! And your children could walk to school and play outside without you having to worry that somebody will kidnap them or kill them in a drive-by shooting....or trying to sell them drugs.
@NiteStarGirl Yes life was good from my point of view, compared to now. Most people worked hard and they even windows in cars that manually rolled up and down. Families were still units and we actually visisted our relatives and friends. I went to college got a good job and in the neighborhood I live and raised my girls in is so different. No one knows their neighbors and many of the younger ones seldom come outside. Strangers drive through often. We have paid a huge price for "improvement".
@billeybop Right, because commercials define the era in which they were made in. If that were true, in 50 years you could say "This was a time when women could be happy with 0 calorie yogurt and some chocolate... what a simple time!"
Yeah, those were the days, ilovetovah. I love to watch the really old shows when they show gas prices inadvertently, and its like 3 to 10 cents a gallon.
Okay, 11pouncey11, I forgive you. Some women did take the bus. My mom when she was little said they took the trolley cars downtown when they went clothes shopping.I guess my grandparents either didn't have a car or my grandpa took it. But that was a definite one car family when they did get one. I remember they had one car, and then my uncle, who lived with them, had his own car.And this was all the way until my grandparents died.
I love how she gets stuck with the ugly station wagon!! I guess station wagons were the "women's cars" so they could lug around the kids to the grocery store and still have a place to put the groceries in. Ha Ha!!
Having two cars was a rarity back them. My parents didn't get two cars until the mid 60's. My mom worked the grave yard shift at the hosptial and my dad worked the day shift, and that's how they got around the car thing. My grandpa would come and get my mom and take her shopping when she needed it, or she did it on the weekends when my dad was home and she could take the car. Obviously you are under the of 30 or you would know these things.
I come from a family of 9 (I'm the 2nd youngest), and I remember my parents getting a 2nd car in the mid 70's. My mom would pile the 8 of us into the stationwagon and we all would go to the grocery store or to the park. My mom had a Pinto Stationwagon, then a Vista Cruser! LOL! Those were the days for sure!
I'm from a family of 6, idoljunky, so I know where you are coming from. At that time, we lived in a little, three bedroom house, no basement, 1 bath house. It was so small that the previous owner turned the garage into the family room off the kitchen, and built another garage next to the house. My dad's lone car fit perfectly into the garage. Yeah, those sure were the days.
wow car commercials are so different now. its always some stupid off course test drive on dirt. like some high terrain gay music, ugly car. driving through the woods for some stupid f9ucking reason.
She states she feels like a prisoner in her own home! The first sign of discontent in suburbia. Soon she'll be swilling martinis, tossing down Miltowns and having affairs. She wants freedom, but freedom means more than owning a Ford.
Great the way they DON'T put down "women drivers" in this ad. Everyone deserves freedom! (Sadly, I heard 2 many "women driver" jokes when I was little...& still don't drive! Stereotyping is insane!
The acting is good, but notice how they advertise stuff back then using lots of discripting words and lots of puffing, that is they build up the image in a positive mannor, but still it was a good age for many things back then, though the prejudice was always wrong, and life was too idealized on tv back then. It was an era where cars were made in america and did not have to advertise the fact, and they really put out some wicked nice concept cars back then. Well it is nice to see our history.
Actually, I thought this was a commercial using reverse psychology to tell men NOT to get two cars. Remember how she says, "I can go shopping whenever I want"? LOL
Thursday has been shopping day since WWII-my elderly mother shops on Thursday because the habit was ingrained during the war. And, you may notice at your local store, its still when the fresh produce is delivered.
I love seeing ads like this... the idyllic lifestyle of becoming the ''2 Ford Families'' of the future... I would totally drive the Ranch Wagon today!
Holy crap this commercial was crazy. First of all, isn't there some public transportation and why did she have to wait until Thursday night, does Dave only come home once a week? Affair much? And then, Dave gets the new car and his wife gets the hand-me-down. Isn't Dave a thoughtful and loving husband? Oh well, his wife just said she can see anyone she wants too.
Now she can meet her boyfriend, Gene, while her husband is out working to pay their mortgage and their two car payments. Thanks, Ford Custome-Line Victoria!
I remember when I was a young fella, thinking to my self that growing up back then would have been great.
But at the same time, the amount of control, racism and etc etc etc etc....well you get the idea. Still, you are right IntenseGirl. It sure does look peaceful.
You got that right! Why should she be stuck at home with the shitty car! I wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes back then.
Even with the damn car, the womans life basically sucks. She prolly has to be home at 3 PM everyday to prepare dinner for the moronic "King." Plus, cooking, cleaning and taking car of the kids. Forget it. Today, it's take out, Merry Maids and nannies or NO SEX. Oh, plus we damn better get the "good car."
You make it sound like you hate sex. Only a woman would have the chutzpah to threaten a man with "no sex", as if it were such a drag, such a chore, such a favor you're doing us. You tend to forget that (most of the time) men have to work their ass off during sex, doing all the work, while you just sit back and enjoy. So, in reality, it should be US threatening YOU with "no sex", not the other way around, my dear.
Well if they threaten you with no sex you won't have to work your ass off doing it because you won't be getting any at least not from them . I get where you are coming from though but don't assume that all women just sit back and enjoy. It might be seen as a favor for some women given that men typically have higher sex drives.
It even goes beyond that. If someone TRULY loved an activity (such as sex) WHY ON EARTH would you threaten to NOT do it?????
It just goes to show you that women really DO NOT like sex. For them, sex is just a leverage point to get what they really want (which is always something else).
Wow, you need to lighten the hell up. You said "women don't like sex" PERIOD and they do. You never stated to what degree. Just a blanket statement... I suggest you get laid stat! Christ.
lol you said "It just goes to show you that women really DO NOT like sex. For them, sex is just a leverage point to get what they really want " LOL ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING?
Are you that bad at it? Sweety, if all the women you keep meeting hate having sex with you, maybe THEY aren't the problem. LOL Thanks for the laugh.
He needed it for business probably. And she needed a bigger car to fit the groceries into. It's not sexist to divide cars up based on what they're needed for. I'm a woman but I'm fed up with the man hating for no reason.

It was so small that the previous owner turned the garage into the family room off the kitchen, and built another garage next to the house. My dad's lone car fit perfectly into the garage. Yeah, those sure were the days.

She states she feels like a prisoner in her own home! The first sign of discontent in suburbia. Soon she'll be swilling martinis, tossing down Miltowns and having affairs. She wants freedom, but freedom means more than owning a Ford.

The acting is good, but notice how they advertise stuff back then using lots of discripting words and lots of puffing, that is they build up the image in a positive mannor, but still it was a good age for many things back then, though the prejudice was always wrong, and life was too idealized on tv back then. It was an era where cars were made in america and did not have to advertise the fact, and they really put out some wicked nice concept cars back then. Well it is nice to see our history.

Holy crap this commercial was crazy. First of all, isn't there some public transportation and why did she have to wait until Thursday night, does Dave only come home once a week? Affair much? And then, Dave gets the new car and his wife gets the hand-me-down. Isn't Dave a thoughtful and loving husband? Oh well, his wife just said she can see anyone she wants too.

You got that right! Why should she be stuck at home with the shitty car! I wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes back then.
Even with the damn car, the womans life basically sucks. She prolly has to be home at 3 PM everyday to prepare dinner for the moronic "King." Plus, cooking, cleaning and taking car of the kids. Forget it. Today, it's take out, Merry Maids and nannies or NO SEX. Oh, plus we damn better get the "good car."

Your suggestion would work too. As long
as the woman is not expected to do all the
$hit work. On holidays, men should get up and help with the dinner and dishes.
Historically, women have done everything while men get all the credit in the world.
ladylike1980 2 years ago
You make it sound like you hate sex. Only a woman would have the chutzpah to threaten a man with "no sex", as if it were such a drag, such a chore, such a favor you're doing us. You tend to forget that (most of the time) men have to work their ass off during sex, doing all the work, while you just sit back and enjoy. So, in reality, it should be US threatening YOU with "no sex", not the other way around, my dear.
ejdf870 2 years ago
Well if they threaten you with no sex you won't have to work your ass off doing it because you won't be getting any at least not from them . I get where you are coming from though but don't assume that all women just sit back and enjoy. It might be seen as a favor for some women given that men typically have higher sex drives.
ICECold764 2 years ago
It's funny how women might threaten a man with "no sex" not thinking that if you do that, the man might just get the sex somewhere else.
ikgrande 2 years ago
It even goes beyond that. If someone TRULY loved an activity (such as sex) WHY ON EARTH would you threaten to NOT do it?????
It just goes to show you that women really DO NOT like sex. For them, sex is just a leverage point to get what they really want (which is always something else).
Really sickening.
