Have to admit if you want a laugh you can get it from "Max and Al commercial"
I mentioned them briefly in this topic: http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...d.php?t=649061 The GM Ad Guys already had a couple of "Old Fat Guys" in the "Max and Al" Chevrolet Silverado Truck "pulling a tree stump" commercials (using a couple of Fat Comedians). The Ford Guys didn't need "comedians", they used Engine Dynos and Real World "pulling demonstrations" at an actual Logging Camp. Quote: "I guess the gloves are off in the Truck advertising world..." AGREE! (:>) Tom Vaught

Tom, the new Powerstroke is tough!
If GM wasn't worried they wouldn't be doing this... I just saw the new 3/4 ton version, LMAO! |

Always liked competition. We will see how it plays out.
You have to ask yourself what a smile is worth though. Max and Al make me smile! Kind of like the "Where's the beef?" old lady. Tom Vaught

I was thinking more along the lines of the Isuzu guy from the 80's that lied about everything.

And what I've noticed is they have left to Cummins powered Dodges alone. That would be a good war then. Ford has done their homework and I think what they have come up with is better than the old IH engines of years ago, which in my opinion was a very durable engine.

Those MAX and AL guys cost GM a few dollars.
They are succesful actors, having been in film and TV. |

Still never heard or read anything that said what the actual issues were with the engines.

No telling what they paid. See MAX and ALs website. Who needs this video entertainment when buying a truck? www.maxnal.com |

Every diesel Ive seen taken down with aluminum heads always seems to have cracks. There's a reason big diesels stick with cast iron heads.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
