I have to say, as the owner of two Volvos who pretty much wrote off buying another one if Volvo sticks to their plan to go fully EV, this commercial will really make me think hard about that. They make a damn good car and I am happy to support brands that share my values. I just hope they decide to continue to make ICE or maybe hybrids.
As you've pointed out in the aftermath of Novemeber 5th, Dems learned earlier this month, there has to be a better way to try and win people to your side of an argument without calling people "stupid."
I dont know if the tears were a reflection of picturing my 17 year old daughter in this commercial or the reality that commercials for the last 4 years made me want to be the girl in the cross walk, and hoping the car didnt stop in time 😏
If i had a Jaguar, i'd junk it and buy a Volvo. (in the meantime, i'll keep driving Toyotas and Kubotas.) Re: Gaetz withdrawal...However we got here, i'm encouraged by the Bondi nomination.
For years I have used the news you report as the basis for comparson to other news reports. The people you are friends with are good people and I care what other good people see. I don’t have their opportunities. I sure am grateful you know them! I wondered why on earth Trump would pick Gaetz for anything respectful, that was a huge disappointment. I want to believe it was a means to an end…
Well, sir, you’re in serious danger of disappearing up your own arse again, and your second term hasn’t even started yet. A few of your cabinet picks are just silly. This is head-past-the-sphincter stuff, and you are wasting time. You’re a one-term president with less than two years to accomplish big goals, starting with immigration. Please remove your head from your rear and get about the business of the people.
No commercial ad has never made me cry. The Volvo ad is a short beautiful story. It's also novel in that the lead actors (the couple) aren't the owners of the car that's being advertised. Volvo should run a shorter version of this ad during the Super Bowl.
Another good one Erick. I fully agree with you and that people today do NOT read enough of the REAL news and you give it to us. But I also read a lot of other news about who is doing what, and I don't like what they are doing, but I know they are and Trump and the Rep. party NEED to get with it and work 15 hour days a lot of the time. People have NO idea all that this last admin. did to the laws of this land. It is going to take a lot of time to dig into all of them and then write the proper bills to get them changed and then new bills that this Nation really needs.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ERICK...BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
Erick, saying ..."this is what happens when teletubbies grow up to be serial killers," gets my award for comment of the year! That Volvo ad gets my vote for commercial of the year. Brilliant! 💜💛💚❤
About the hammer dropping on Gaetz, I would think that DOJ would have brought charges in a heartbeat if they thought it was credible. I would think they would wait for the House investigative committee to reveal their findings. Seems bass ackwards, but I'm no lawyer though I play one on TV... not really.

Bondi is an excellent pick--love her! And love the Volvo commercial but cannot say the same about the Jaguar commercial...not even close.
Erick,

Please, take your own advice.
Wow

Erick, that comment wins the internet for the week 🤣🤣🤣

Dear Donald Trump,
Well, sir, you’re in serious danger of disappearing up your own arse again, and your second term hasn’t even started yet. A few of your cabinet picks are just silly. This is head-past-the-sphincter stuff, and you are wasting time. You’re a one-term president with less than two years to accomplish big goals, starting with immigration. Please remove your head from your rear and get about the business of the people.
Sincerely,

I have little interest in an EV, but if I did, it would now be a Volvo.
I still won’t drive a Volvo.

That Volvo ad. Wow.
I wish Trump didn't nominate a Clown Show, but he kinda did. Still, a Clown Show is better than a Freak Show
More like a clown car crashing into a dumpster fire behind the freak show 🤦♂️
