Thoughts on the commercial, ignoring the title?
They should sell a ton of these. And it’s probably as off-road capable (not very) as 95% of buyers would ever need.

Yeeeaaaah not a good phrase to ever use in advertising. Like, no, don’t ever do that. You might as well be saying Mazda: Deus Vult!

If they sold them in Spain, they’d sell it as The Answer to Your Inquisition ™!

ignoring the title?
*shrug* I dunno, it’s a fairly run-of-the-mill ad. Nothing really stands out.
Except that title.

That title was very much done on purpose.

Mazda must have done some customer research and found out that 98.1 % do not have a favorable opinion of Native Americans.
I hear Mercedes is going to start using the slogan “w ork will set your free” to sell their new x class pickup.

The difference being Americans actually won their genocide.
The head of VW did still comfortably dropping Nazi slogans last year.

Seems like a horrible way to run logistics for a restaurant.

If this was in Seattle, the “driver” would have hit one of those parking bollards, and the roof-mounted junk carrier would remain on the car 100% of the time, as the real point of one is to show people that you “do things”, or at least like the image of doing things.

My favorite part of all of these “crossover” commercials is driving on a gravel road. I’ve daily driven sports cars on gravel roads, am I supposed to believe that I need an additional 6 inches of ground clearance to ever touch gravel ?
I still do n’t see the appeal of this over a Mazda 3 hatch.

It’s pretty funny, but it must work. They sell a ton of Subarus.

Using it in a commercial just shows you that car can’t hold on the crap you want to have in the car.

The title had me expecting “High Hopes” as background music and thank goodness it wasn’t. H
as everyone forgotten that “m
anifest d
estiny” was really just sneaky code
for
“H
ey, colonizers, go ahead and
steal all that land
from the N
ative Americans
?”
I liked the CX-30—if you have to get a crossover for some reason, that’s the one to get. So, I guess the commercial content is
fine, but just...fine
. Standard car commercial stuff. Nothing really stood out as clever or particularly exciting from the commercial, which is too bad, because they made a good lil’ car.

I knocked the parking “space” bollard over during my first-ever driving test in Renton aaaaaand the state Washington still gave me a driver’s license!
PASSED ON THE FIRST TRY, BABY! WOO!

I should’ve bro-parked it on top of a parking curb like a Jeep bro on the test drive, TBH.

It’s probably even easier now that testing is privatized - the state now only issues licenses and makes rules, private for-profit firms conduct testing. I am pretty sure, just like with residency, that licenses are for sale now.
