Irony of ads

[bryancos]

Some of these google ads that show up are a bit amusing... Especially the one that reads:
<I>
4Runner's Dirty Secret
Think you found the right SUV? Think again. Look before you buy.
www.isuzu.com/SUVexposed
</I>
It's an ad for the Isuzu Ascender... which is merely a rebadged GMC Envoy / Chevy Trailblazer / Olds Bravada / Buick Rainier -- that alone should scare you.

I had My Envoy for less than two years... it was in for warranty service almost as much as it was on the road. I took it in so often that I was on a first name basis with the service department. "Hi Duane, it's me again..." "What's wrong with the Envoy THIS TIME??"

Thankfully I got smart and got the 4Runner

Izuzu used to be decent....

Those Poopers, I mean Troopers, were decent and hardy-good enough to sell under the Acura/Honda line. Then Izuzu built the Rodeo that was good enough for Honda to sell under their own label as the Passport.

Then they took a bunch of stupid pills and bought rebadged Envoys....

I thought that ad was kind of funny.

Don't complain too loudly.. these sponsored posts are what's help financing the operation of this forum. It could be worse. At least they're not forcing ads in every member's individual post! I don't mind the ads as long as we can poke fun at some of them.
