Photo of Chrysler ad on African billboard
Snip: It glibly reads, "German engineering, Swiss innovation, American nothing." The parent company of SMART, DaimlerChrysler, happens to be a "German-American" multinational corporation, so the fortwo has deeper ties to these United States than this billboard and SMART's ad agency suggest.
You do realize that I am referring to the series of ads Chrylser ran in the 1980s, right?
I am pretty sure they were an American company back then, what with Iacocca running things and all. Hell, thanks to the bailout, it was an American-Taxpayer owned company back then.
