Honda Clean Diesel Animation

This is an animation is all about hating diesel engines. This may the epitome of the "Honda can do no bad" Movement. Catchy and welll thought out though. You will probably like it... and then hate yourself for it.

Definitely gets the message across.

Clearly, what we're seeing here is... a good ad agency at work.

Re: Honda Clean Diesel Animation

Who can blame em for this?? They weren't the same bunch of idiots (like Oldsmobile) who were responsible for putting out sub-par diesels back in the early 80's and thus contributing to the negative stigma surrounding them........

All GM has to do is come out w/a solid, efficient diesel to dispel Honda's BS.......but they won't, because Bob "the-beancounters-have-his-balls" Putz has blasted diesels at every turn and seems to have more faith in just about everything else......

So, at the end of the day....Honda wins

It's actually a commerical about hating old, loud, obnoxious, smoke spewing diesles, not diesels in general, since the engine at the end is a DIESEL!

Re: Honda Clean Diesel Animation

I like honda, but not all deisels have to silent to be good engines. I really hope the new light duty truck deisels aren't all going to have their cool sound neutered.
