I think the commercials are awesome. They're trying to push the "image" forward.
Taken from the "snow" page on the website:

---------------------------------
When a car company charges for roadside assistance....
aren't they really just helping themselves?
Think About it.
---------------------------------
A car company should stand behind its cars. That seems obvious, but it's surprising how often that isn't the case.

What if a car company offered 5 years of free roadside assistance instead and it was really free? What if they gave you the industry's best bumper-to-bumper warranty: 5 years/60,000 miles?

What would that say about the pride that company took in its cars? And what would it say about how deeply they valued their customers?

Think about it.
---------------------------------

Abuse it, then learn from it.
Every Hyundai model is subjected to one of the most brutal quality tests in the industry: a 100,000 miles drive, the equivalent of four trips around the Earth. Afterward, the car is disassembled and studied under a microscope.

Nice site, I like it.

I like the fact that over half of their cars are made in america, more than buick, saturn and caddy.

Thats something to think about.

I wonder how long it'll be til they start calling out specific "american" companies (i.e., how some Ford engines are made in Mexico)

they could have used a better slogan than "think about it". when car buyers think about it, they buy toyotas and lexus' damnit because they have already stopped and thought about it.

i find it a bit distracting to be on their main main main page right then and there. when customers go to these sites they want to find out everything they can about the car, not to have an annoying manager's voice tell them "think about it dumbass"

I can't get Fred Durst out of my head.

"Just think about it..."

I think it's from the song ReArranged? That'd be good audio on the site: Fred Durst saying, "Just think about it"
