'Moving forward'.....
Ford don't realise that by angering and alienating their existing 50 year plus Australian fanbase, they are poisoning their own brand even further. V8 Supercars doesn't only promote Falcon, it creates brand awareness. Why in hell would a ****ed off fan now recommend a Focus to his wife, or buy a Festival for the daughter or extoll the virtues of Ranger to his tradie mates?
Yes, I know the V8 sponsorship hasn't been working well in that respect, judging by current sales figures. But haven't Ford learnt that the multigenerational customer loss caused by wimping out of motorsport in the 80s will repeat itself for the next few generations?
300 Festivas a month is not a good result for social media and trashy TV show sponsorship. Ford, you've gone soft. It's hard being a Ford fan these days.
