It's not a C-130, it's a C-123. If you actually believe there isn't any smoke & mirrors in that commercial, you are simply too stupid to be in public by yourself. In all reality, what was actually accomplished?
If you land an airplane & pull the power back, the plane slows down. If you chuck a Ford out the back & have the Ford slam on the brakes, guess what? THE AIRPLANE WILL STOP!!! HOLY CRAP, CALL THE CIA!!! Trust me when I tell you this, any vehicle could "stop" that aircraft. A Ford Fiesta could do the same thing. Think about it. A Kenworth with a 53' trailer weighs more than that C-123. They stop safely all the time.
Now, if that C-123 would hit the throttles, it would take off with the F-150 flapping in the breeze like a trolling lure.
So, I'm saying that commercial, like pretty much every one aired by every vehicle manufacturer, is meaningless.

I actually LOVE my truck too and i have a ton of pride in driving it. Most NORMAL people do have pride in something that they have spent 30,000 + dollars on but then again as said earlier you are from jersey, so you my friend ARE NOT normal
