A natural fit for Bear. Then again that guy would pitch maxi-pads for the right price!

I think most people would pitch maxi pads for the right price hear what you are saying though.

I woke up to this video sitting on my phone this morning. I'm excited to see what's coming Sept. 3.

Great ambassador, runs around with a film crew drinking his own urine, making forts in the bush then spending the nights in hotels. Too bad for LR.

He whores himself out for Walmart too....

Lol Idk what everyones talking about Bear Grylls is the Man!!! I cant think of a better commercial face for L.R. Everyone associate's Bear with extreme adventuring and survival. Perfect person for L.R. to revamp that image...not as if they have lost that but a good way to introduce a new generation of offroaders who are growing up seeing rich people tricking their rangies out with 22" rims and low profile rubber

I like bear and applaud his success.

...this, among a myriad of other things, will sooner or later cause me to sell off everything I have with a green or black oval associated.

Good point.

Because Bear is the new spokesman? A man that has a hit series, has climbed Everest, crossed the Atlantic in an open top rigid inflatable, and was an SAS member? Seriously, if his resume is what is turning you off then you are unimaginably difficult to please. He pitches for Walmart because they sell his line of Craghoppers/ Gerber rebranded stuff. I am no fanboy but I cannot imagine how you could choose someone else who exudes the outdoors like he does.

Land Rover - the best four by four for piss drinkers by far. I'm about as excited for this as I was when they let Posh Spice "design" the interior of the Evoque.

Bear Grylls "exudes" the outdoors like Johnny Knoxville "exudes" comedy. Bear Grylls is an outdoor **************.

Man this went downhill. I bet most people on here couldn't hold up bear grylls jockstrap. I made a slight about his commercialization. But the guy does have some skills.

If Paul Hogan could sell Subarus (and even make people think that they were an Australian brand), why not?
