Hippie Tibbie

Id never thought of Hyundai as folksy, but the company actually commissioned a genuine local artist, Billy, to do this feel-good paint job as the apparent centerpiece of their otherwise unremarkable booth. What message does the company hope to convey by putting this, um, masterpiece right out front? Even the earnest Hyundai staffers had no idea.

It’s a nice paintjob, only thing wrong with it is it is on a “post-Nixon”pile of junk instead of a nice 1967 Plymouth Belvedere GTX 426 Hemi(serious “neck-snapping” horsepower)and to ‘NATHAN’, There is nothing, repeat,nothing wrong with 1960s styling

I am totally offended that the word “hippie” has been placed infront of my real name. I googled myself, as usual and I have to see this?! I could care less about the car, I mean whatever-its a car with paint on it, but nobody hates hippies more than I do and…I am so repulsed I am at a loss. Why would anyone market anything as a “hippie” anything. Thats like, junkie soap, or scumbag mouthwash. I wish my name was left out of all this.
Thanks,
Tibbie X

I’m sorry but I think its cute. I strikes me as personal expression and as long as they like then who cares right?

Hi Jen

There is nothing wrong with that paint job. Some one has to play chess, strum the guitar, drink cheap wine and have a bike with flat tires. They have to make a living too.

It also looks like Hyundai used their preschool squad to do the work for them.
