RAM APOLOGIZES FOR DAMAGE TO STONEHENGE DURING COMMERCIAL SHOOT

Ram has officially apologized to “the people of England” after two of the mammoth stones that make up the prehistoric monument Stonehenge were pulled down and dragged during a demonstration of the towing abilities of the 2015 Ram 3500 heavy duty truck.  

“In hindsight, it probably wasn’t appropriate,” said repentant Ram spokesman McWheemus Bartle.  One stone was toppled and the other dragged about 40 feet during the demonstration, which Ram had intended to use in a television commercial.

Paxton Botwright of the English Heritage Authority, the group that oversees Stonehenge, commented incredulously, “I’m gobsmacked. We thought they just wanted to shoot with the monument in the background, not pull the bloody thing over.”  

“We didn’t think it would be such a big deal, but I guess we were wrong,” said Ram spokesman Bartle, adding, “Needless to say, we’ll put the rocks back up the way they were.”
