Seriously? I think there should be some heads rolling from a certain marketing team.

Holy Cow Parking, Press-man...Didja

Per ex-DCX pressman Jason Vines on his AutoBeat Daily blog (I guess that's his current gig):

"CAR RUSTLING IN DETROIT. If you were in Detroit in the wee
hours Saturday night and lost your car, I bet I know where it went.
Chrysler reserved a lot downtown to stage 125 longhorn steers
prior to a cattle drive for the all-new Dodge Ram pickup Sunday
morning. The plan was to arrive with the beef around 2 a.m.
Apparently a homeless entrepreneur decided to make a
fast buck by renting out the lot at five bucks per car. Twenty
people bought his line and deposited their wheels. Then the
cows came home, so to speak, and the rightful renters had
those vehicles towed. When the revelers returned, they found
their cars replaced by four-legged T-bones with six feet of horns
on their heads. I'm not making this up."

Who says entrepreneurial spirit is dead in Detroit?

Here's my video of the same event, with more cattle humping. I couldn't stop laughing. Nobody was paying attention to the trucks. These cattle could not leave each other alone.

The Daimler Chrysler events were come of the more memorable Detroit Auto Show events, as were the Pre Daimler old Chrysler ones. Maybe you remember the Jeep Grand Cherokee introduction when they drove the first production version through a plate glass window to Cobo Hall. Or how about the RAM Truck that dropped from the ceiling? That's when they took chances. This time? it was a Valiant Effort (Pun Intended) but far from successful.

Jim Press had to leave Toyota when they felt his dream of directing "Cow porn car ads" would "Steer" the company in the wrong direction. I think they were right!

When men were men and the cows were nervous. This is sad. There's just something is terribly wrong with American manhood when a golf bag replaces the gun rack.

@DoctorNine: I was thinking the same thing. "This is a real truck." Cut to removal of golf clubs from said truck's storage bin. Yeah, that's what I think of when I think of a real truck.

Ok, so golf clubs. GOLF CLUBS!!! This is more pandering to the 'PU as luxury vehicle' market. Totally wrong. No No No.

What a joke. Any press event where the queer bulls you bring along upstage the focus of the event... to the point where the presenter has to say "look at the truck"... has failed miserably.

And the new Ram looks more vanilla than ever.

Real cowboys don't need bling blang wheels, voice activation or stow away bed. The first thing they are going to do is drop thier fiberglass rear end off at the truck equipment center in favor of a steel flatbed w/headache rack.

I'd like to say that PETA would have some sort of a heyday with this unviel, but it seems our Texas Longhorns were enjoying themselves, and eachother.

Holy Cow..that was a great press intro!

Wonder if Jim Press wanted the cattle to stampede over Bob Nardelli. Word is that they cannot stand each other.

Was not environmentally friendly either with all that bovine flatulence.

Wonder if they went to the Lafayette Coney Island after?

I just watched it again and it's working but it does black out after the shot of the cattle trying to uh, be fruitful and multiply.
