Subject:(F) TV Ad Bus Sightings(NVC)

There are currently at least three ads on TV in California featuring VW
busses.  One is a Raley's supermarket ad where a fellow shops at the market,
extolling its virtues, and the cashier/stock boy loads the groceries into
the rear hatch area of a red 70's bus!  The other is an anti-drug ad
featuring a young woman saying she knows drugs are bad cause her parents
talk to her and she's riding in the passenger seat of a bay-window bus,
unknown vintage.  There's a third ad featuring a splittie at a red light in
the desert next to some unrecognizable-cause-they-all look-the-same-import
car.

Is the TV advertising world pandering to the aging hippies or what?
