I just watched this video from Full Boost.
https://youtu.be/dIdhur_wd7M The PC/ Nanny State Brigade want the Ranger Raptor Ad banned as it encourages dangerous driving, hooning and speeding. |

They should ban ads which show a driving style which voids your warranty.

When the advertising is clearly done off road and under controlled conditions,
Harold Suby and his lot should be told to butt out. |

If a ute creating some dust in the outback is going to encourage hoon behaviour what about all the violent, disgusting, brain dead rubbish that fills the rest of the air time on tv?

We should change the name of our country to U.N.S.A.
The United Nanny States of Australia

Couldn't agree more, and all it takes is for one person to complain. |

Here's a couple of hoons with er intentions of the procreation variety ..
I wonder what they'd make of this Toyota ad if it aired these days.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpI0q52wHxg . Toyota did some great hilarious ad campaigns in those days ie Bugger and Crumpy etc. Some of Ford's ads especially ute ones were great too like this one ..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUbgfWTptoU Re nanny state .. remember that Holden ad from a couple of years ago when the Dad and kid were driving along an he says "Bloody caravaners " .. The the same ad appeared later on with just "Caravaners" .... What a terrible tragedy to use a bit of genuine Aussie idiom ..Heaven forbid yet it's alright to blight our TV's with endless marriage , dating , stupid cooking and drama king and queen home reno garbage for months on end ..

It's only car manufacturers who have to apply to the guidelines. Supercheap don't have those restrictions.

Maybe supercheap could use an unregistered Raptor on a dirt track to advertise ‘oil’. Of course paid for by Ford. |
