If Bruv and his bunch were on the field of battle that day, we'd be looking like this when it was over.

I thought the whole premise of the as was kinda stupid, that is that the US builds superior cars to Britain, and this coming from the sinking ship that is Chrysler of all companies. 

In my mind Chrysler is kinda to the US what British Leyland was to the UK... ... ...

And to imply that the UK makes no worthwhile sports cars!!! Has Chrysler never heard of Aston Martin, TVR or Lotus?? 

If I had the money and I wanted a new fire-breathing, rubber-burning, break-your-neck-accelerating, ear-drum-shattering, sexy beast of a muscle car, I'd take a V8 Vantage  any day over a Chrysler.

I should note that my favorite car is kind of a Brit/Yank cross.  The Shelby Cobra 427sc    British looks and handling, with American muscle under the hood.  Also the Ford GT40 has a lot of British in it as well.

I think the idea behind the marketing *Washington kicking butt* is funny.  I just don't think it fits the product being sold.

Would have worked better IMO if it had been done with a type of vehicle that is uniquely American, like say 1-ton diesel pickups like their RAM, or giant SUVs like the Durango.  I just don't think Chrysler's modern incarnations of classic muscle cars like the Charger and Challenger are that special or unique.

Remember, you were in a bar. Hootin 'n hollerin suprised you?

Heh, more or less what it comes down to I guess.  Considering the bar I was just caught off guard, I suppose.  Just never understood the need to "boo" myself.  If you're gonna heckle, at least be witty about it.
