The Ford “Running of the Santas” is great, silly fun. Puts those crappy Lincoln commercials to shame.

For some reason, my dog hates the Santas. He growls at the TV when they’re on. He usually only growls when he sees dogs on TV.

It seems a great commercial that breaks down with the actual product, as Santa doesn’t tend to bring cars in his bad. But maybe the juxtaposition is the point.

If it is a commercial it is a damn ineffective one, because you seem to be the only one who knows what the product supposedly is.
