Agreed. All if not most of consumers are not brain dead and clueless when it comes to buying cars. I could care less about some stupid & non-sense commercials. I don't care if it's a Kia, Scion or Hyundai. Give me a good quality product within my budget that speaks for itself.

Does anyone ever actually consult the 'young demographic' they seek, or do they just consult self-declared experts on that demographic?

It seems to me that young people with hand, face and neck tattoos are not going to be shopping for Scion hatchbacks. I assume they want buyers who pass a credit check and have steady employment, so they may want to focus on younger people with tattoos that would be covered by a collared shirt.

Wait! What? You mean I went out and got these hand, face and neck tattoos and plugs in my ears and nose to fit in with all you young guys and now you are saying it is not cool. Shit.

I'm flattered that you lumped me in with the young guys, but I'm a decade or two out of their millennial target audience.

I've never even purchased a concert ticket to hear some dj diddle his ipod.

As a young person, with shitty tattoos on my chest and arms and ears that are still a little stretched from plugs, I'm offended by this video.

Wasn't exactly lumping you in with them. Just using you description of "young people".
