Ford sponsored the
show with two threeminute spots opening
and closing the
episode. And, Ford
vehicles have been
integrated into the
show -- the main
character, Jack Bauer,
drives a Ford
Expedition.
Perhaps the producers of
"24" did not find a phone
company that wanted to
sponsor this episode.
According to a 2003 Chrysler
press release, "The Jeep Wrangler
Rubicon is the most capable Jeep
ever built, so the heroic and
extreme environment in which
Lara Croft uses her custom
Wrangler Rubicon in Tomb Raider
is accurate... This is more than
just a product placement. We have
created a 360-degree integrated
marketing campaign around the
movie and the debut of the
Wrangler Rubicon Tomb Raider
model."
