My Explorer doesn't. We didn't get that option.

I would have rather had a back glass that opened separately.

On a track, where he can truly appreciate it.

Commercial? Or marketing driven?
 
Interesting car, but not in a bang for buck way.

Didn't they sell out already? I don't see a need for a marketing push.
 
Leno probably knew who to ask.

Halo effect if anything. A car worthy of his collection though, for sure.

And what a collection that is.
 
Looks like he flew out to drive it, though, so I doubt he has one.
 
It did make a different impression on him on the track, vs. on the street.
 
It would be tough to drive even 6/10ths on public roads.

He even has a W210 E55 AMG.
 
I can't imagine he wouldn't own one if he didn't want it. Maybe it was a part of a larger event or something.
 
Tough to drive legally, anyway. As we all see from the idiot 1%ers who crash their undeserved supercars, legally and public roads aren't always in high correlation.

When he did an episode with the Fiat 500, he mentioned he owned one, I think his wife's DD.

#6446 of 7122 Ram ads by ateixeira

Still plenty of testoterone:

Not sure that shifter button is manly enough for the image portrayed in the first ad, but they probably needed center console space for cupholders and laptops.
 
Where'd the Spanish come from in the 2nd ad? Strange. And is he a rock star or a cowboy? Maybe a country rock star.
 
#3 - is the ride even smooth? I thought they were the truckiest of the Big 3.
 
#4 should be called hyperbole.
 
I bet the target demographic eats it up, though.
