I’m a fan of Lincolns. When I drove the 2010 MK I loved it. Probably because I am such a child of the 80s. It brings back memories for me of heading into the city in someone’s posh daddy’s car. Lap of luxury, cushioned, coddled, but powerful. All that stuff Lincoln probably wants most people to think about them. And then this. This commercial says to me “Double check that life insurance policy girl, cause once you get into your car, you’re checking out.”
Did it not occur to anyone at Lincoln’s ad agency that Major Tom bid adieu to his wife and kids? And floated off into space. Presumably to DIE?
Is it just me that doesn’t respond well to an ad for a car that brings to mind death?
Just checking.
