Probably the worst ad I ever saw was for the Ramcharger years ago. It had the slogan: "Power That Says Get Outta My Way Or I'll Kick Your Butt!" Real winner for road rage. I'd heard they pulled it because of too many complaints, it didn't last long. I get a kick out of guys driving these gas-guzzlers, with the king-of-the-road attitude, invincible. Believe me, they fold up like paper in a bad accident just like everything else. |

Anybody else tired of the Nissan Sales Race ads with their computer animated cars driving around a computer animated track complete with fake track sounds? I also hate how Nissan spins their computer animated cars on a "digital turntable" at a fast speed and a low angle (sometimes from front to back, sometimes a full 360). Quite nausea inducing. Also am not fond of Nissan's spokesperson. He has a very headache inducing voice if you ask me. A mute-button allstar if there ever was one. |

The Tundra ad with the bags of manure is a pretty good one even though I would not buy a Toyota truck if I was in the market for a pickup.
