If Audi wants to sell me a high mileage diesel car they should say it performs like a gasoline powered car and saves money. Is there another reason to buy an Audi diesel ?

The only people who should be offended by those commercials are "progressives," liberals, members of the democratic party or dirt!firsters.

I thought they were hilarious!

Right up there with the "Smoke Jumpers..."

Yeah I laughed my butt off. Prob. the funniest SB commercial since Terry Tait, office Linebacker.

Of course here in Texas we BBQ envviro-whackos, so you in the more socialist areas may be a little more sensitve to the matter.

One question though, what was with the anteater?

In one of their other commercials, the anteater was being used to sniff out contraband Styrofoam, which was carefully being stored away in evidence bags by the Green Police.

I hope it opened some eyes about the future on this path.

And I say this as the owner of two Prius cars

And they would have ended up with a commercial that's just like a million others, totally forgettable, and totally ineffective. This brilliant ad has people talking, and thinking, and has created product awareness that a standard format commercial could never accomplish.

The real motive of leftists is to get people into cars the leftists can't envy. The Audi diesel is somewhat of a luxury car with power that makes many leftists turn green. Making fun of leftists while flaunting luxury in their face works to demotivate them. The ad should be effective in making some sales to people that hate leftists.

I’m out-accelerating the pickup trucks in this snow — better traction control.

And both my cars fit in my garage, so it’s easy to clear the driveway.

And I spend half as much for gas as I did when I drove a mini-van.

And my family of 4 still does a 2-week summer vacation by car.

Another Audi ad addresses that.

Anteaters' sense of smell helps root out contraband styrofoam cups and other objects thoughtless drivers continue to use. At first I thought it was a Wallaby!

LOL!

GREEN = THE NEW RED.

Any way the totalitarian Left can find a grip on your rights or freedoms they will always seize the opportunity.

So now is all in the name of saving Polar Bears, Trees, Smelt, or whatever - just COMPLY or Else!
