Watching the NCAA’s. Saw a commercial for the Chevy Silverado that made fun of the Ford F-150’s “man step.” Really, that’s all the commercial did. There was a comparison between the step and the Silverado’s warranty, which isn’t even apples and oranges. That’s tomatoes and bowling balls.
Here’s what cracked me up — shouldn’t these American car makers have some solidarity right now? I mean, dag, y’all were all begging for money not too long ago. Now you’re trying to take each other out?
No no no. You know how the milk people do commercials just for milk? Got milk?
That’s what they need to be doing for these cars. Ain’t no time for beef. It is not time for “Takeover.” It’s time for “We’re All In The Same Gang.” They need a truce, man.
“Cars. They’re still cool.”
That would work, don’t you think?
