You’ll be hard pressed to find three others that advertise on TV. And yet, they sell. That’s how important TV advertising is for car sales. A couple things really surprised me about this list. Subaru has (3) models on the list. That may have something to do with advertising. But they don’t advertise the three vehicles on the list. They advertise the company’s support of the National Park system and their support of animal focused organizations. The whole “dog-friendly” thing. The other is that Camry and Civic are the only two cars in the top 10 (Corolla is #11). For years they were each number 1, 2, or 3 on the list.

So, my question is…”If advertising on TV is so all important, how did most of these vehicles get on the Top 25 list without advertising on TV?”
  1. Ford F-Series
  2. Chevrolet Silverado
  3. Toyota RAV4
  4. Tesla Model Y
  5. Honda CR-V
  6. Ram pickup
  7. Toyota Camry
  8. GMC Sierra
  9. Nissan Rogue
  10. Honda Civic
  11. Toyota Corolla
  12. Jeep Grand Cherokee
  13. Chevrolet Equinox
  14. Ford Explorer
  15. Subaru Forrester
  16. Hyundai Tucson
  17. Chevrolet Trax
  18. Nissan Sentra
  19. Ford Transit
  20. Subaru Outback
  21. Honda Accord
  22. Kia Sportage
  23. Subaru Crosstrek
  24. Toyota Tundra
  25. Jeep Wrangler
There you go again with your stats compiled from your spreadsheet from behind your oak desk in the ivory tower.

Meanwhile, in the real world, people have real emotions and react viscerally to cool cars on race tracks. Ever since the days of the Stutz Bearcat showing up in magazine ads in the 1920s.

Long before your “superior knowledge and advanced degrees and vast experience” as a “whatever” you are:are at GM ever mattered.

Keep making excuses or blindly thinking you’re always right because you have all the stats and all the spreadsheets right in your files.

GM went bankrupt, but we ALLLL know none of it was ever YOUR fault.

You had only the right answers ALLLLL the time
