Default How I feel!

Apparently this commercial was banned. It is pretty much how I feel everytime I am behind the wheel

GM caved in on the commercial. I like it and think they should have kept airing it.

i liked this ad when it was running & i like it now even more. they can ban this sort of an ad but i guess it's ok for congressmen to have cyber sex between those inconvenient lawmaking sessions. if you want to ban something, consider banning having kids dream about becoming congressmen, senators, & governors. these types have more than their fair shares of drunks, cheaters, liars, thieves, kiddie ****-heads, & more. such a lofty example they set for the rest of us. bub

Now I'd like to see a commercial with Dustin Hoffmans character from rainman driving in slow circles and hitting the curbs with a Z06 like he did in the movie, saying how good of a driver he is I mean, kids cant drive cars, but CRAZY people can (yes yes, he's autistic, but you know what I mean).
