Ken Block has turned Midwest adolescents into billboards

Went into a Pac Sun here in Utah and found an entire wall dedicated to Ken Block/Monster/Ford.... Kind of made me sad.

I am offended that he switched to ford. On a personal level. Was it just for the endorsements? Or did he genuinely LOVE the fiesta?

Thank God I never bought a Ken Block item of clothing, even when he was with Subaru.

he still has his personal subarus. Should we still hate that he is getting paid by ford and not subaru now? If it were me, a job is a job regardless where the money comes from. I would still have a subaru in my garage. I drive a Fedex truck for work and the last time i checked none of them were subarus. Just what i believe.

He switched because Subaru dropped out of wrc I believe.

He switch to Ford because he wanted to run WRC and Subaru doesn't participate in WRC anymore because of rule changes that made our beloved boxer motor outlawed for competition use in the WRC.

In vegas, the DC store in planet Hollywood should just be renamed Ken Block Boutique.

Hey, I change my avatar about every 2-3 weeks, it's hard to keep things as fresh as possible sometimes!

if you go outside of the US, no one really cares for KB whether he is with subaru or ford. when we were in Canada, i've seen some of his Subaru/DC shirts in some stores, unlike here where you see them all over the place. like their european counterparts, the canadian fans are more rally-bred and have a ton of respect towards subarus and rallying as a sport, not as a spectacle. they would rather see him rally the crap out of the freakin' fiesta and none of that gymkhana bs..although i did buy his "cool" shirts that i only wore a couple of times...and i was like
