    Just saw the new Ford ad for Ethanol and hybrids that makes them look right out there with Toyota making the cars of the future we need.

    Just like Toyota it was general and pushed saving the environment rather than for a specific car.

    The tv commercial that annoys me to absolutely no end is the Chevy one where everyone's promising. One guy says that he promises that one of their cars gets an estimated 30 MPG. Wth? He's promsing about an estimate? That can't be logically sound.

    Then one guy says that they "even took a Silverado and made the first-ever full-sized truck." Yeah, I remember when that tragedy was originally released. How many of those "hybrids" have actually been sold?

    I just get so frustrated every time I see that one.

    I saw it on TV on one of the Sunday morning talk shows. Forget which one.
    Regular tv, not cable.
