Face lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yet -
Just had that on Facebook 5 mins ago. It's funny and clever as a bit of backyard humour but probably no suitable in advertising for a business. Surprised the paper let it go ahead.
and yes I shared it....

They've been doing those ads for years now. They usually have something about a local celebrity or sports star and often pick on pollies. Pity they couldn't concentrate more on their servicing standards.Dave

If advertising is meant to make people notice you, then it seems they are on a winner to me.
I am comfortable with that type of thing but I imagine there would be a good section of the community that would be most upset by it.

A bit like the slogans on the wicked vans. They're going to review some after a woman complained about a remark about young girls.Last edited by Bushbasher; 23-12-2014, 08:27 PM.Dave

Not very clever, poor taste, cringe worthy. I guess rednecks and the like will find it funny.Comment

Each week Goldfields Toyota (where I got my 150 from) run these adds with funny comments that are not always politically correct. The news paper is the Kalgoorlie Miner, not sold in many other places other than the WA Goldfields.

I guess it has 'gone viral' - as much as I despise that term...

I would have thought the world had a lot more to worry about than a one line poor taste gag in a country paper, I guess lots of people aren't happy unless they have something to be unhappy about!Originally posted by 120D4D View Post

I thought it was funny. I can see people that cant see the humour in this, or many other things.Comment

And there in lies the problem, it's always the third party who will make the complaint, not the people enjoying the humour (when it's there).Last edited by Bushbasher; 23-12-2014, 08:28 PM.Dave

Dave, apparently the big boss of Toyota has followed up with dealership and the add was to be pulled from the net which they did, but not before it was plastered over face book !!... Cheers SteveFace lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yetComment
