WHY GAS?

I just finished ordering my personalized license plate for my Chevrolet Volt.  What do ya think? :-)

I literally tried every combination you could think of and this was the only one left.  I tried NO GAS, ZERO GAS, ZRO GAS, N0 GAS, X GAS and others, but to no avail.  I think I chose a pretty cool one nonetheless.

900 Miles Between Fill-ups

GM released the following ad during the Olympics and it was absolutely fantastic!   
 
I truly never understood "900 miles between fill-ups" until I became a Chevy Volt owner.  And boy am I proud of our decision to purchase one.  I can't even remember the last time I put Gas in my car.  Oh yeah, it was around Christmas, when I went to visit family.  2075 EV Miles and counting...

Check out the ad here.

What a Hot Mess: Ford vs. Chevrolet

I swore I wasn't going to post any Superbowl commercials, but I have to talk about this one.  As you probably already know, in the commercial you see a man driving his 2012 Chevy Silverado through an apocalyptic city.  It's the end of the world, remember?

The driver continues maneuvering through the destruction as Barry Manilow's "Looks Like We Made It" plays in the background.  He eventually comes across his buddies who all happen to own previous year models, when he asks, "Where's Dave?"
And it's the response from this man that starts a mess of a battle between two of America's largest Automakers, "Dave didn't drive the longest-lasting, most-dependable truck on the road.  Dave drove a Ford."

Well Ford wasn't going to have any of that.  In fact, they tried to keep it from airing the day of the Superbowl by issuing a cease-and-desist order to NBC.  But it didn't work.  And now the CEO's are back and forth sending each other ridiculous letters that I found quite humorous. [source]

You know General Motors is having so much fun with this... they issued the following statement:

"We stand by our claims in the commercial, that the Silverado is the most dependable, longest-lasting full-size pickup on the road," said GM Global Chief Marketing Officer Joel Ewanick in a press release. "We can wait until the world ends, and if we need to, we will apologize. In the meantime, people who are really worried about the Mayan calendar coming true should buy a Silverado right away."

A Happy Chevy Grad - Superbowl Winning Commercial

Because we all know America's Team is out of the playoffs.  The Texans handed the Ravens a win, who in turn lost to the Patriots - a team nobody really cares about.  And well, nobody can really stand the Giants, so what's the point?

Commercials!  You know everybody watches the Superbowl for the commercials.  It will be the perfect time to DVR and fast forward through the entire game. LOL.

Here's Zack Borst's winning entry to Chevrolet's Route66 competition chevroletroute66.com. This Chevy ad will appear during Super Bowl XLVI.  Check it out, it's pretty darn funny.
