# Truck Tribute Corn Mazes In This Ford Commercial a Farmer Creates a Corn Illustration of the F-150 By Charlotte Joyce Kidd | Published 2015-10-29 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ford-commercial References: [egmcartech](http://www.egmcartech.com/2015/10/29/video-watch-ford-draw-an-f150-in-a-full-size-corn-maze/) & [ford](http://www.ford.ca/trucks/f150/?searchid=71700000010155375) In this Ford commercial, an enterprising farmer creates an entire corn maze in the Ford F-150 truck's likeness. The Ford commercial takes place on a farm just outside of Napoleon, Ohio. The seven-acre corn maze is a tribute to the F-150 truck. The F-150 has a long-standing relationship with the agricultural industry. It has a strong reputation as a traditional American farming vehicle, and is thus popular with farm owners and workers. In this Ford commercial, the all-American car company reminds viewers of the F-150's tough, durable image and boasts that the newest model is "the toughest, smartest, most capable F-150 ever." This Ford commercial is a great example of a brand solidifying its identity and catering to its existing supporter base -- in this case, by appealing to agricultural workers with rural imagery and a down-to-earth tone. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 29% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Brand Identity Solidification:** Creating consistent and appealing imagery to cater to existing supporters and build a strong brand identity. - **Niche Marketing:** Highlighting specific industry ties and appealing to a targeted audience, such as agricultural workers. - **Emotional Connection:** Using relatable, down-to-earth tone and imagery to create an emotional connection with the audience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive:** Opportunities for car manufacturers to strengthen their brand identity through emotional storytelling and targeted marketing strategies. - **Agriculture:** Potential for agricultural companies to collaborate with car manufacturers and leverage their shared values to reach their target consumers. - **Advertising:** Innovations in creating engaging commercials that resonate with specific industries, resulting in increased brand loyalty and customer satisfaction. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Farmer-Focused Campaign Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lays-super-bowl-ad.md) - [Movie-Inspired Truck Commercials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ram-truck.md) - [Co-Branded Farmer-Supporting Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/farm-rescue.md) - [Cartoon Underdog Soda Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tractor-beverage-company.md) - [Electrified Vehicle-Made Films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/short-film-mushroom.md) - [Hands-Free Car Innovations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/british-deaf-association.md) - [Creative Auto Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-capri.md) - [AI-Lead Car Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Be-Surreal-Be-Ford.md) - [Farmer-Supporting Short Films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-future-begins.md)
