Challenge
The Ranger is Tough Done Smart. We needed to prove both halves in demonstrations nobody would forget.
Idea
Skip the claims and run the experiments. Alongside the Ranger engineers, we designed extreme tests of the truck's brain and brawn. Every one was real, and every one pushed the Ford to its limits.
The Work
The award-winning, full-funnel Science of Truck campaign, developed for Australia, New Zealand, and ASEAN. Also used in the UK, South Africa, China, Vanuatu (my personal favorite), and others.
