SHIZZY Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I don't know if anyone caught the premiere of the new Knight Rider movie, but the bad guys were pursuing the new KIT in a Ford Edge!!! lol It looked like a 2007 Sage Edge with BAMR. :shades: The new KIT (a Ford Mustang Shelby GT) had to take the mountain roads to elude it. lol. I found that amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xplorgee Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 The show was a Ford Commercial while it was going on and the regular commercials. First car chase was Mustang, Edge, Focus, Fusion, I think was a huge ford truck, a 150 afterwards and there was also a Volvo S40/S60 there. WOW.

robertlane Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 My boyfriend thought it was funny that the GT 500 KR couldnt out run an Edge. That's because it was a VAPOR Edge, which is the fastest color they come in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_Am_On_Edge Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Yeah I saw that also. I was laughing at how an Edge could keep up with a GT Cobra. Hey anything is possible in Hollywood....LOLOL Hope we see a hot-rodded Edge in future episodes :happy feet: Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyz95 Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 For your entertainment today. From Crave: http://crave.cnet.com/8301-1_105-9874336-1.html Feb 19 2008 Lessons learned from the new Knight Rider (Credit: Ford) Knight Rider returned last weekend in a made-for-TV movie/pilot with a new car, the Knight Industries Three Thousand (still K.I.T.T.), and a new, young driver. Of course we watched it, and would like to say we learned a lot about the world and ourselves. But the lessons we took away from the new Knight Rider were more specific to driving a high-tech car while fighting crime, something we do at CNET Car Tech almost every day (except for the fighting crime part). - If you owe a gangster $90,000, it's a good idea to get a cash advance on your credit card and play Texas Hold 'em in a Las Vegas casino. - FBI agents prefer the Ford Escape. - A Ford Edge can keep up with a Ford Shelby GT500KR Mustang. - Because of its excellent brakes, the Ford Edge is a pretty good car if you are about to get in a head-on collision with a big rig. - Real-time satellite imagery is a great addition to GPS. - A solar add-on can boost the mileage of the Ford Shelby GT500KR Mustang to 167 mpg. - If someone is shooting at you, make sure the computer is on. - Don't bother shaving, even if you are going to your mother's funeral. If you have no idea what we're talking about, you can catch the new Knight Rider on NBC this Saturday, February 23, at 9 p.m./8 p.m. Central.

818EDGE Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 It was absolutely horrible!! And yes I watched the whole thing. The Edge chase was great (in a bad sort of way). I stopped the DVR while fast forwarding through commercials when I saw the actor guy doing Ford commercials on the same show. I hope nobody would even think any of that was even remotely possible.

killermaze Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Can anyone post a link to watch the commercial? Of course for the people that missed it :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyz95 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 OMG !! It was rerun this past weekend and I saw parts of it. Truly horrible ! Absolutely hokey ! Corny entertainment but still horrible! One moment the big GMC SUV was clean and in one unwrinkled piece, then the next moment every surface was smashed and broken. Like it rolled over, but it didn't roll over and the impact was only on one end. ?!?!? Just absolutely hokey ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

818EDGE Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 So horrible that I have to catch the next episode. I think the original was better. Getting David Hasselhoff to be the kids long lost dad is beyond cheezy. Its kind of like one of those stupid spoof movies that you watch just to see how bad they are..
