Bad Trip, 1965

1965 True mag Mercury ad

Bob and Betty couldn’t understand why the OK Motor Lodge seemed to be located at the top of a ski hill, albeit one strangely lacking in snow.

But Betty had been looking at the map upsidedown. And Bob had a thing about not asking for directions.

Mercury might indeed be a great road car, but it is not so great an off the road car. And now they are stuck halfway up the bunny hill at a strange Polynesian-themed ski resort which requires its patrons to carry tiki torches on the trails.
