That's some marketing ploy
Have you seen the Hummer commercial where the mom tries to defend her kid on the playground? Then she trades in her minivan for a Hummer and then, like, has nerves and guts and all?
Stupid.
First of all, a real mom wouldn't do that. A real mom would tell the other mom to either go blow, or feel ashamed for teaching her kid that kind of snot-nosed behavior.
That commercial just makes my ass twitch.

Yes, but bear in mind these ads are geared to some moron who would spend 70K on a vehicle. Not to average people with common sense, like you and I.

Posted by: GroovyVic at July 24, 2006 07:47 PMI was hoping that after she bought the car that she was returning to the playground to run over the slide.....what a stupid ad!
Posted by: LeeAnn at July 25, 2006 01:01 AMOh, that ad! The message seems to be: If you can't be a bully on the playground, be a bully on the road. Show them you're rich! Show them you don't care about the environment! Drive a HUMMER!
Bleh. Turns my stomach.
