No TV here either. I assume this thread is about a TV ad?

"Woah, come with me now" does that have a specific meaning in S. Africa where they are from?

There's a least one modern Triumph Scrambler(with aftermarket exhausts) in this commercial, and I believe the bike the skydiver rides off the back of the plane appears to be a Norton Commando Roadster of early '70s vintage.
(...though I'm not completely sure of the second observation)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

It's easy, Jeff. The point they're attempting to make is that "you're ALMOST as 'cool and tough' driving around in a Ram Pickup as you are riding around on a motorcycle".
(...and btw, does anyone know why the hell Chrysler Corp decided to drop the "Dodge" branding on their pickups?...kinda reminds me of Yamaha branding all their cruisers as "Star" motorcycles now...big freakin' dif, HUH?!)

Well, the "almost" is enough to keep me away! Maybe our bikes will be renamed to "rica"

So I get the coolness of riding around the desert with a bunch of your buddies but riding out the business end of a jump plane. HUH!??

We all know what the inspiration for the Dodge Ram logo was. http://cheezburger.com/1829956864
