so the guy backs into the ramp, boat in water and THEN proceeds to unload the cooler and tackel boxes from the truck into his boat, great way to show proper ramp manners, oh wait, I forgot, not many have those anymore

sorry, just venting

OK well glad someone else caught it too hehe I didnt want to say anything and have people go, Boy you're anal LOL

But yeah I noticed it right off the bat, and was like, way to go GMC...

Now all these guys with the new trucks will use this as their way of being rude at the ramp... "Well I saw it on TV!" UGH!

"Maybe" since the govt., has an owning interest in GM this is another way the govt., has of showing how to screw things up !!!

That is the kind of thing I see all the time at the local ramps and have to bite my tongue. Here is a link to the add on UTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDTUCNADNY4.

Re: Anyone seen the new tv ad for GMC????

I haven't seen the ad, but does it show a crowded, public ramp? Anyone waiting around? When no one is waiting, there's no harm. At one ramp I sometimes use, there are hoses on the ramp so you can wash and flush and the water runs down the ramp instead of making puddles. Not a bad set-up when no one is blocked.

Also, when you launch without sinking your axle, you usually want the boat to be unloaded of heavy gear such as coolers, so you can't preload.

There is no "one size fits all" for boating.

So.....are you saying I shouldn't by a GM Truck?

It's amazing what bothers some folk........as once said at one time, " Take a Stress Pill and Think Things Over". It looked like somewhere in the wilderness,
only thing waiting to launch would maybe be a Bald Eagle........Breath....Breath......now...relax.

No, you shouldn't buy a GM truck, their made by a worthless company. Second, this is the cool section. I got blasted on another forum for b**ching about people taking too much time at the ramp! Everybody on this side agrees with me, except the person i'm responding to here.

Take a deep breathe, I don't agree, but that's my right, I like GM products.

Re: Anyone seen the new tv ad for GMC????

well you gotta figure if it's the mentality of the company runners and the same for the advertising...no wonder they are in trouble...

these are the same people who lead you to believe they are doing you a great justice by offering a program (cash for clunkers) to benefit you...when all it does is scam you out of more of your hard earned money...

I think I may get into the repo business as fast as they are going back....lol

Re: Anyone seen the new tv ad for GMC????

Well, at least they didn't tie any lures on at the ramp. Seen this done before.

Re: Anyone seen the new tv ad for GMC????

I just see that as one more example of out of touch ad people trying to market products they know nothing about. The best example I've seen lately is the new one for the ford s.h.o where the voice over repeatedly pronounces it "show".
