Default I hate GMPARTSHOUSE!!!!!!

No this is not ment to be a copy off of the Steven Singer comercials.

As some of you have read we recently put up a billboard off Rt422 in Pennsylvania. With that said we have apparently made every uptight person in the area begin comming out of the woodwork. Here is where I am going to share some of the hate mail we have all been getting. Will be posting them as they come in

Here is the billboard please feel free to post your opinions

About an hour from me was a barn that had an old school 50's waitress painted on the side of it. for a restaurant. it ran along a major highway. the state made them paint over it because it caused distractions. even though it was there for well over 10 years. so stupid

Referencing the female gender/anatomy as a "RIDE" is totally and explicably sexist.

I LIKE IT!!!

I love it! In fact, I will do some free advertising for you if you send me a similar promo poster that I can display in my man-cave!

(P.S. - I am also a customer of record).

i don't see a problem with it... don't worry about it man, no matter what you do you're bound to **** someone off, there's no way around it... you paid money to advertise on that billboard so if they don't like it oh well... they have a choice to ignore it and not look at it... i see tons of things everyday that i don't like but i don't whine and cry about it because frankly the world doesn't revolve around me and there's nothing i can do about it anyway... just let the haters hate and keep doing what you're doing

Using the female body in an exploitive way to sell auto parts in a manner such as you did with a skimpy top that serves to give a message such as it does can best be described as discriminatory in that you did not post a similar sign in NY!
I urge better judgement and ask that you seek an appropriate location in NY immediately!!!

If I passed a bill-board like that with the wife and say I needed to check that place for parts wouldn't go over to well. But I do like it
