Well, ASSHOLES, STOP advertising your goddamn Jeeps driving around with SHARKS in the middle of the ocean!

Fuck I hate SUVs, and the people who sell them.

:banghead:

1. Yeah, let's show this vehicle doing something it can't do! That'll work.
Idiots...

2. Idiots all around - and they obviously think the people who might
buy them are total idiots, otherwise they wouldn't need the disclaimer.

Oh wait, the disclaimers are there because otherwise someone would run out and buy one and drive it off a pier then sue Jeep for reckless endangerment.

We don't need idiot-waivers on the end of commercials, we need some motherfuckin TORT REFORM!

3. Thank those assholes that bought Trans Ams and tried jumping them
like Burt Reynolds did in Smoky and The Bandit. Then when they ended up in a fucking lake, they sued John DeLorean and GM...

4. HAHAHAH
I hope they lost, and then had to pay the legal fees for both sides.

6. Well, that's not as bad as trying to jump a creek
which I'd have fully believed until you posted that link.

Still, why not sue God for making wood so hard? Or the tire-manufacturers for not making self-steering rubber?

7. Yeah, I had a detail wrong...I was working from memory.
Plus I was 12 when the suit was filed and 16 when it settled, so details were not my strong suit back then. ;)

Yeah, let's see - do dangerous shit in a car, and it's the car's fault. Anyone too stupid to know that stunt drivers work in Hollywood should have been eliminated from the gene pool.
