check this out: Dodge Ramchallenge
So i was watching the RamChallenge thingys at ramchallenge.com. Its actually pretty cool.
But one thing i noticed: in episode 3, when the guy is briefing them, pause it when you see the red tent behind him....and what is parked under that tent? A supercrew F150!
And then, shortly after that, you see the contestants walking in slow motion...pause it again, and you see a pair of F350s.
In a couple different spots you can see Ford vans too. So although its a neat little course, just goes to show who REALLY worked hard to set it all up.

That just made my night lol. Good fight Dodge
Also prior to the red tent in episode 3, when they are joging to be briefed. Do I see another f150 out there?

i just watched the videos... kind of a let down.
the commercials they keep playing on tv say all over "stock trucks, no modifications" ...yet they even mention it in episode 3 that they added roll cages. what would have happened to the contractor's truck when it got side swipped by the swinging car if the roll cage wasn't inside?
that, plus all the pointless shots of the helicopters flying around nearly hitting each other, plus all of the ford trucks in the background (as mentioned) made it kind of weak. whoever put the videos together for Dodge has watched WAYYYY to many Jerry Bruckheimer films. I kept thinking I was going to see a shot of Sean Connery destroying half of LA in a Hummer... instead i watched a bunch of idiots destroying new trucks, lol.

Made it through the first episode, part one, and I'm done.
I didn't believe it would be that stupid.
I'm sure they tossed the keys to average working joe's and told them to fly off ramps and down steep winding trails. Give me a break.
I wanted to watch just to see the fords. But I just can't do it.
