You ain't missing much if you haven't been to the bay area besides great weather, lots of traffic, expensive houses and high taxes lol.
The beach, the mountains, national parks.. skiing and surfing just a few hours from each other. Amazing technology companies. Wine country. Very few flying insects that torment you. Terrific food, culture..

Every time I go to the area I turn green with jealousy. Comfortable short sleeve weather nearly every day - unlike here where we have 3 or four days per year where it isn't hot, cold or you're feeding flocks of the state bird (mosquitoes) with your blood.

My attention to detail is like an on/off switch. On a forum, you don't need it. At work, I'm on my game. Kind of like your on/off switch for being a nice person. :cheers:

I'm viewing the picture on my phone. The picture gets distorted if you zoom in too much. Hence the reason I couldn't see the writing. That and small text.

seems like a waste of money to market to nyc commuters who probably don't even know how to drive. instead spend that marketing money on the suburbs across the U.S.

like duh

Friggin hilarious dude, you must be from South Carolina. California not NYC.

That's going to really upset the liberal, Prius driving snowflakes in the Bay Area.
Well, my cousin just picked up a GT350 in the bay area so not everyone who lives there is a tree-hugging cork-sniffer.

I do indeed have an on off switch for being nice. You got me there.
I completely understand if you are on your phone not seeing it. :cheers:

I will state this: lots of folks getting on here making statements about how the ad is dumb or the like. Look closely and be sure of your statements first. Seriously.

I have never seen such negativity on an enthusiasts car forum!

Look at that train....doesn't look like a subway in the slums.

Notice the name above it? Berkeley is hardly low rent.

It's called advertising folks. Generating excitement for a new product coming soon.

Must suck walking around being disappointed in everything.:shrug:
I agree. Berkeley is not a depressed area by any means. It is an upscale college town. A Mustang is probably the among low end of cars that most residents buy.

I spend a week in North Beach every few years, and I love it. Of course I'm a tourist and I use public transportation. It is quite expensive to visit, but the food around Pier 39 is outstanding, and flights from San Diego are cheap.

I agree that there seems to be lots of negativity and closemindedness on the forum.

What's hilarious about all of this bickering is that I'm reading this while on the bus in San Francisco while my gt sits parked in a garage.

I bought a car to leave the city and have fun but i would never drive it in the city. You people have no idea what you're talking about. And people here have so much God damn money they could buy a mustang in all cash without flinching.

I'm sure ford knows exactly what they're doing. But way to be armchair marketers.

This forum is getting fucking annoying

well i never clicked on the link how am I supposed to know where berkley is? for all i know it could be name of some station or line. I dunno never been to nyc or san fran and never want too so I ain't gotta worry about it.

either way money could be better spent not on a train but out where actual drivers will see it...but ford's got plenty of it.
Wow! Just wow. And BTW, the correct spelling is 'Berkeley'.

Don't let these tourists fool you. California's weather is absolutely terrible and matches the air quality.

The Bay Area Rapid Transit runs throughout most of the SF Bay area including many suburbs and the center median of certain freeways where such an ad would have much exposure.

Yea but that's all stuff us Californian's take for granted lol. Climb half dome in Yosemite one weekend, be in Santa Cruz the next. I have a couple guys on my slow pitch Softball team who are from the Midwest and they say they're never moving back.

[MENTION=27427]Jim Bronson[/MENTION] have you ever eaten at Mona Lisa's in little Italy? My wife's family is legit fresh off the boat born and raised near Bari Italy and they say that's as authentic as it gets.
Guys, thanks for setting the record straight on CA, and you've only mentioned a few of the most well known places. I love SoCal. Sure there are some drawbacks. but it is still a great place to live.

I've never eaten at Mona Lisa, but it is now on my list for next time (maybe this fall).
