History No more "Chevys", sorry guys....

The GM dickweed that came up with this bone-headed idea cited Apple and Coke as companies that have built a reputation on ONE, strong name. The only problem is that Coke is also known as Coca-Cola, so he actually refuted his own argument. Idiot.

The same can be said for Pepsi.

'Chevy' has zillions of dollars worth of brand recognition. I am sure that this bozo will quickly be put into his place.

LOL if he has his way, we can no longer be 'Chevy Tough'. It's only a matter of time before someone produces a spoof about being 'gay in their Chevrolet'. Ha!

 

Well we'll always have FORD

 

No . The word Chevrolet doesn t mean anything in French . Nothing but a car brand

 

I like CHEVROLET better anyways!

 

a million simple little things like this have led to the dumbing down of this country, a state in which we may never recover.

 

Must be the same ass-wipes that came up with this that also talked Coke into changing the name to "NEW COKE" we all know how well that worked,ask Bill Cosby!!!!!!

 

what ever! A turd by any other name smells just as sweet.

 

Lyman Slack Chevy in Portland,Oregon had a plate on their cars on the lot in the 70s/80s----------CHEV-IT.......kinda says alot!

 

Huh???........ "BANG" ........... Just kidding!

 

But the man Louis Chevrolet was a man of French decent born in La Chaux-de-Fonds Switzerland. He then moved to Beaune, France, then Paris then Montreal. That's as French as it gets hahaha!!! The car company however is as American as apple pie!!!

 

Some.. "Very few" Came out with an LS-6 454 back in 1970.. That was a real Monte back then....

 

Let Gm fucking die already. I come from a GM family, dad had a factory ride from them in 1970 but they are a bunch of dumbasses. We inherited a 2003 Venture, biggest POS I have ever seen, make a K Car look like a Delahaye.

But fuck it, lets talk traditional rods adn customs...........................

 

Can I still call them "chebby's" or "chivvy's"? Looks like the pencilnecks won this round, everyone's all up in arms about a memo they already "retracted"... what a bunch of bull, they should focus more attention on building cars people actually want to buy, not trying to get people talking about their name. It just looks to me as if the marketing people didn't have anything better to do today.

 

THat's the song the played on Fox 2 just before the announcement..

 

I can remember when GM put a stripe kit on a '71(?) Chevelle and called it a "HEAVY CHEVY"

 

I heard on the news this morning that GM is backpedaling a bit on their name game cluster fu**. It should be interesting for a few days until we all get bored beyond tears.

URY...a rose by any other name, is still a rose. and WE don't give a damn what G.M. calls them. next they will be calling corvette's CHEVROVETTE'S HA!...POP.

 

Does this mean people will stop saying/writing "Chev" and "Chebbie"? I can only hope.

 

We call the ones on sale over here by what they are under the badge,'Daewoo's',and every time I see one it breaks my heart

who cares ??

 

Louie Chevrolet drove primitive race cars and looks like a bar room brawler.He probably could kick the Henry Ford and Walter Chrysler's asses ,both at the same time

 

It's really going to tongue-tie the oriental guy on the Mitsubishi commercial when you make him say


"Cheboray".

 

Excellent response! HRP

 

I'm with you, Trucked! That guy had Cahones!

 

What are they called???

 

mercury...Merc..?
than ford ditches the line..

chevy ..chevrolet......coke....coke cola..BFD

such a trivial thing to be worried about , when they have or should have much better things to do, or worry about

Like who really gives a shit?

 

GM shouldn't be so concerned with calling Chevrolet's Chevy's. Most of us grew up calling them Chevy's. They should be more concerned with their quality issues for all their brands or they will go the way of Chrysler-Fiat.

 

Just a sign of how STUPID our society is becoming.

 

Marketing genius, they got the whole world saying chevy, chevrolet again.

 

Maybe Henry, but Walter would drop that Frenchman like a sack of excriment - tough ass Kansas Farm boy who learned to fight the hard way.
