It's beyond me why car companies(and others) have to use these so called sophisticated ads to try to sell me a car. I would much prefer that someone stand up and tell me that they have the best car(product) in the world and we can deal and those ads are irritating other ways too. The VW ads, stupid. Howie Long trying in his most condescending sneer at some runty in comparison guy trying to sell me a Chebbie because his C1500 p/u doesn't have a 'man step'. It goes on and on. What ever happened to the likes of Speedy Alka Seltzer or Doris Day in Seein' the USA.

As I said above, thank goodness for a mute button and the major reason that if I do watch the boob tube for a 'normal' 42 minute out of 60 minute show, it's via a DVR or VCR recording.

(sorry, it's my age showing again)
