Greetings Dodge Nitro,
Nice product! However, I and my veteran buddies just saw your commercial on FOX that shows your Nitro helping a stranded motorist with a car jump. The car explodes in a similar way in which vehicles explode when being blown up. We understand the message-power; but, the first thing that came to our minds is how this message associates the car explosion to IED vehicles that explode in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bad taste? Maybe not for you or some others. But, definitely bad timing, folks. You struck a chord with us on this one and we agreed immediately that we'd never buy the Nitro because your ad stirred some bad memories.
Nothing against Dodge because we want our American made products to succeed. Just, please, think well first and have some sensibility.
Thank you.
