7. This has been going on for decades now

And all of the American automakers engage in this sort of advertising. Is it money well spent:shrug: I'm sure that there are marketing studies out there concerning the effectivemess of these shows. But the sad thing is that under current corporate law, GM and others get to write off part of the expenses for this show as advertising, thus, indirectly we all get to pay for these little shows.
