Looks like Chevy’s marketing department didn’t completely think their new promotion through. Chevy is running a promotion where users/owners of Chevy Tahoe’s can build their own web commercial on Chevy’s website.
Why Chevy thought users would choose to only create commercials which show the Tahoe’s (or SUV’s in general) in a good light is beyond me.
Here are a sampling of some of the commercials created by users that I don’t think Chevy had in mind when they green-lighted this promotion:
NOTE: As of 4/4/06 Chevy is either unaware of this content (and oblivious to the fact that half of the internet and blogsphere is buzzing about it) or they do not have anyone monitoring the promotion. I do not expect it to remain this way for long, so the links below probably will stop working in the near future, once Chevy get’s a clue and starts removing the ‘negative’ user created ads.
