Best ever Comercial, GM

OMG I just saw a comercial, and it wasnt even a GM comercial... But it made me want a GM car. although probably most wouldnt notice.

Okay, it was a Mastercard Comercial, you know the "12 brand new vehicles for you and your friends: zero dollars" as you watch a car hauler big rig run over a mail box, next seen an SSR in front of a house, next picture a guy is eating his oat meal tips the waitress with a set of keys to an SSR that is sitting outside "Hey it was good oat meal" i think it shows another SSR and someone hugs someone and lifts them off the ground. "How it feels to hand them the keys: priceless"

check it out the comercial is on the site awesome!

I've been topping off my gas tank daily, and making extra purchases with my GM Card for the last month and a half to get extra entries...

I'm gonna win... I keep telling myself that.

its better for mastercard if u do that... so they dont care, smaller puchases are better then bigger ones, at least as most places i've heard of

usually 25cents for usage and somewhere between .5-1.5 percent of sale per usuage... so small entrys are making mastercard more money, so they will thank you

but it says cannot exceed 360k so lets see thats 30k a peice... well i could get a few HHRS a few vettes a few trucks and a few caddies... i'm happy

Since I've determined I am going to win, I've read the official rules several times over.

You can pick up to 12 cars with a max value of $360,000...

But, you can pick down to $240,000 in cars, and take the remaining $120,000 in cash to help pay the prize taxes, etc... and keep the extra cash.

SO, basically... you can pick any number of cars up to 12 that totals between $240,000 and $360,000.

It's really sad that I know these details.

i think any GM vehicle as long as the total doesnt exceed 360,000, which puts ur average vehicle at 30k, if u spend a wopping 65k on a vette, then you'd likely have a few cobalts or aveos in your new line up on the grass/driveway

Re: Best ever Comercial, GM

lets see...

66C+10A=360$
4 z06 + 8 Aveos = 344k$
264$ + 80k = 344k

soo... you could give away 8 aveos and you could really have a lifetime worth of vettes... assuming you drive responsibly...
