Ted, > Just like seeing Detroit getting its act together and was glad to see Eminem finally step up.

I love the ad, but I think the slogan isn't going to fly. "Imported from Detroit" is going to make me think I'm driving a car better suited for Eminem or Dr. Dre than Donald Trump or Warren Buffet.

Chrysler in particular is notorious for reliability problems. Even the latest from ConsumerReports.org ranks Chrysler at the bottom:

That suggests a car that was made by disgruntled union employees, not a car made out of the strongest steel forged in the hottest fires.

As for Eminem himself, already he's looking like somewhat of a hypocrite. Just moments earlier during the Super Bowl, he was featured in another ad (another favorite of mine):

"See? That's why I don't do commercials!" LMAO ...

Generally Detroit isn't getting its act together.
