Default Terrible TV Commercial

Over the years, Chevrolet has produced some of the worst ad campaigns to sell their vehicles. But their latest one may be the worst. In one ad, a father is driving a new SUV. His teenaged daughter and her boyfriend are riding in the back seat. He warns the boyfriend that the vehicle has a camera in the back seat and that he will be monitoring them to see if any "funny business" is going on. Really? Is that the best reason Chevrolet could come up with to convince buyers that they need a camera in the back seat? To me, the commercial is not only not funny, but it is insulting to teenagers. Rant over.

The things we rant about when we get old.

I loved the Chevy commercial where the daughter had the 66 Impala restored for her father.

Going off the Chevy commercials a bit, the commercials I hate are when they take these new trucks/cars in the back country and drive the hell out of them though rocks, rivers, streams. dust and dirt.

Do they really impress you that much to buy one thinking it's tough and long lasting??

Oh, and here's another, the guy takes his hands off the wheel of his GMC truck then claps....Stupid

I guess some of the Chevrolet commercials are pretty good.

But I especially hated the ones where they bragged about winning the J.D. Powers awards. Those awards are for sale to anyone willing to pay for them.

None of these commercials inspire me to buy their products.

I do like the Budweiser commercials with the dogs and the horses. Sadly, I’m allergic to beer.
