I can't believe that commercial didn't end with the skydivers packing all their gear in the car and driving away from the LZ. That would have been perfect.

Sigh, I see the powers that be still think the Aveo can be cool.

that was a big enough parachute for a southerner to use!

To be fair, it's also not really flying. It's just falling...with style.


/yeah, I went there.

I know some of the jumpers. Yes, they're awesome.

It's the landing I want to see... and trying to start & drive the damn car out of the desert afterward.

Not only that, but why would I visit Russia's Pravda for a Chevy commercial?

ha-ha-guy: Sigh, I see the powers that be still think the Aveo can be cool.

Indeed. When I worked at a rental car company.. the Aveo was well understood to be the lamest piece of junk on the lot..

As someone who recently got stuck in an Aveo from Enterprise; I wish the shoot wouldn't have opened. The thing had manual windows & locks, no cruise, handled like a shopping cart and accelerated like a run-down electric golf cart. Not to mention it made you feel like fodder for the SUVs and trucks on the road with it's paper thin cabin walls.

The Ford Fiesta is a much better car in that class--I rented an SEL version once and it was fun to drive and has the same v4 engine as the Focus/Fusion (good, fast). It has nice amenities inside too.
