So me things just can’t be recreated....like having “ Dandy” in the name of your expensive luxury car.

There are a lot of memes I’ve noticed looking at old American car ads:

- Commenting on the current year (New for ‘59!!!!)

- Pictures of men with their families

- Desperate attempts to convince you that they can do everything the Euros/Japanese can do, but better

- The implication of deca dence

I find it hard to believe that this Ford nobody has heard of actually rides better than a Citroen, known by all for their excellent ride even if nothing else. Perhaps the trade off is that the Ford feels like a massive barge and the Citroen manages to be soft yet somewhat nimble. Or perhaps they’re comparing the wrong Citroen - maybe the coachbuilding firmed things up a bit, or the more expensive cars than the DS rode better. Surely the big Ford is pricier than the plucky Citroen, though perhaps not in coachbuilt form.
