THE SPOT
In "Rooster" (:30) a bird attempts to yell his usual morning wake-up call, but winds up coughing instead. The rooster spots a Chevy and scampers over to it, hopping into the driver’s seat. He pecks the horn as he spies the sun coming up, successfully waking the residents of the farm. The ad concludes with the tag, "Chevy. The cars you can depend on. The cars that last."
Spot broke in February.
