I've always wondered why car manufacturers like to show off their vehicles by playing videos of them hydroplaning across a road in the rain. That doesn't give me very much confidence.
 

That Maxima commercial is the bomb-biggity. I want one (advertising worked).

The commercial of the car stuck in traffic, overheating and getting riddled with gunfire didnt do well in test groups.

Got my attention.

I can't believe you just said &quot;bomb-diggity&quot;:Q. Hehe, when that girl on Channel 1 said that, she became the laughing stock of my school for the rest of the year.:p
 

I said &quot;bomb-biggity,&quot; not &quot;bomb-diggity.&quot; Totally different animals, my friend. I use that expression when I feel like being super-cool.

I am thoroughly annoyed by the commercials for 4x4 trucks and SUV's that show the things tearing through mud and other types of offroad terrain. But, such use voids the warranty if you actually buy one. I have to take the pressure washer to the underside of my truck before it goes anywhere near the dealer, so those a-holes don't give me any crap.
