    From what I've seen "foreign" ads are a lot more imaginative and push the boundaries a lot more than any I've seen in the US.

    But in general, foreign companies are lot more conservative here - just as I'm sure American companies are conservative in their ads in Japan than the Japanese companies.

    I bet that guy wouldn't have any problems using the HOV lanes & a ninja in the trunk sure beats Trunk Monkey.

    The Telemundo commercial sounds more entertaining than that Prius crap they paid big bucks for.

    When one sells to stupid and/or ill trained people one has to expect problems. Just ask the other automakers.
