Chevy just sent me an email!
They didn't like my Tahoe ad. :-(

The Results Are In

On behalf of Chevy and the all new 2007 Tahoe, we’d like to thank you for your outstanding effort in the Chevy Online Apprentice contest. Thousands entered, millions checked out the Tahoe site and your response was overwhelming.

The commercial you submitted was strong but, after careful deliberation, we’ve decided to go in another direction. If you joined us in the online boardroom on April 27, you already know the quality of the competition. If not, take a look at the five finalists for some insight on which commercials caught the judges’ eyes.

If you haven’t already, you can sign up to receive email updates on great offers and promotions from Chevrolet or request a quote on the all new Tahoe from your local Chevy dealer.

Thanks,

Ed
Ed Peper
Chevrolet General Manager

4. No shit!
I bet a lot of reviewers were laughing their asses off, but most of the competition's designers were pissed.

3. My official ad was about them continuing to make SUVs
And what a poor business strategy that was, but how it would be all ok, since they'd be bailed out like Chrysler.
