I have seen this dozens of times in the last week. I can't find the video, but this horror show goes something like this:
Her Buick has WiFi? Her Buick has WiFi??? Seriously? Seriously. Seriously?? Seriously! Seriously, STFU.

Is this it?
Those poor children at the end. What will they do without internet while walking all the way to the house. They might miss a tweet, or worse, a Facebook status update. Oh, the horror. Unspeakable horror. |

That's the one, though it is an extended version of what I've been seeing. Reason I didn't think that this was a the one is because they don't show the people at the end.
Seriously.

SICK of the Buick commercials--acting like they are like a Rolls Royce. The old lady gets in the car and "oooh my!" BARF! Nothing more than a rebadged Chevrolet.

Not understanding why car manufacturers are doing this. States are trying to get people from using cell phones and texting while driving, so here comes Wifi.
So back to steering with your knees while updating your facebook status on a laptop.

I don't know why they are portraying this as some kind of technological breakthrough when cell phones have had WiFi & Bluetooth tethering around for several years which would accomplish the same goal.
Knowing GM's record this "feature" will be riddled with all kinds of bugs and lead to millions of recalls.

Also could be good for online radio channels, and of course the benefit people will most likely see with it is that they'll be able to circumvent paying for high-data phone plans. |

Also, according to the commercial, your great great great great grandmother can update her blog! Everyone wins.

Kinda reminds me of the early Infiniti commercials, bragging about heated mirrors and cup holders.

And an over-size rear view mirror for that glare they give the driver following too close behind.

So much for cheap. Monthly Plan 200 MB 1 GB 3 GB 5 GB OnStar Subscriber $5 $15 $30 $50 Non-Subscriber $10 $20 $30 $50 One-time purchase packages are also planned in two sizes, and will be valid for the durations noted below. One-time packages are available as follows: One Time Purchase 250 MB/1 Day 10 GB/12 Months OnStar Subscriber $5 $150 Non-Subscriber $5 $150 For existing AT&T customers, a 4G LTE-equipped GM vehicle can be added to a Mobile Share Plan for $10 per month. But at least you get 3gb/mo free for 3 months.

I said something similar yesterday. Driving a Buick with WiFi now means you look like you're 48 instead of 72. The car still looks like a bulky hunk of metal and fiberglass. Don't even get me started on Peyton Manning and Shaq trying to convince me they drive Buicks!

And usually (though not essential), they'd like to be able to see past the hood. You know.. "Sit low, drive slow." Wi-Fi or not, old people should not be allowed to drive. |

I haven't liked Buick ads since they dropped Shaq as their spokesman. It seems like everyone in the current ad campaign is an idiot, from the dopes who don't know what a Buick looks like(great selling point there!) to the tiresome 'hip granny' with her blog, to the airheads saying 'seriously', and especially, that couple spying on their neighbors and their new Buick(Hey, guy with mullet, the '90s called, they wantt heir stupid fashion trend back).
But the worst part is that stupid, cloying, repetitive music.
