As is traditional at this time of year we have the Super Bowl in America and we at Overdrive critically review the car ads that played during this “football” game.\u00a0 At $5.5 million dollars they charge to run a 30 second ad let alone the cost to produce them, you would think they would be good.<\/p>\n

We think the ads show truisms, lifestyle values, social values, pulling the heart strings, technology and humour.\u00a0 It is much more grand image than specific features.<\/p>\n

Errol Smith and Brian Smith join us to cast acerbic eyes at the latest creations.<\/p>\n

Gentlemen thank you for your time.<\/p>\n
