Out For A Drive In The Snow

Subaru’s are known for their superior abilities in the snow. Unfortunately since late October we’ve had hardly any!

It snowed today and I get to use the two sweetest words in weather: as forecast!

The timing was right. The predicted impact was correct. Make no mistake, this was not a bullseye! At my house there was a lot more snow than forecast. In the Hartford area and much of the northern half of the state there was less than forecast.

You may have noticed I’ve spent the last eight months as the spokesman for Premier Subaru in Branford. Subaru’s are known for their superior abilities in the snow. Unfortunately since late October we’ve had hardly any!

Problem solved today. I threw my camera in the car and set out to document my experience.

This isn’t really part of my deal. I just thought it would be fun to piece together.

It was… and who could have predicted the skidding truck in front of me?

Perfect Day To Get A Car

When I made the deal I insisted I also drive the car. Makes sense, right? I should know the product.

I’m doing commercials for Premier Subaru. That’s a departure for me. I haven’t done commercials since I’ve been on TV.

I got the car today and made two quick roundtrips from Hartford to the shoreline and back. It rained. It poured. No problem.

It was the perfect day to get this car! I want something dependable in all weather and rain is just the beginning. Remember I’m at work on those snow days when I tell you to stay home!

I Am The Spokesman… Officially

Obviously I want to be associated with a car which will safely deliver me to work on the days I’m there to tell you to stay home!

I mentioned a few days ago I’d become spokesman for a car dealer. Now the announcement’s been made so I can say it’s Premier Subaru in Branford. You’ll start seeing commercials I made with Bob Alvine, Premier’s president, pretty soon.

How the hell did all of you guess it was a Subaru from the out-of-focus Photoshopped image I used in my earlier blog post?

In the abstract I wanted to do commercials. From a practical standpoint I soon realized not every sponsor was compatible with me. I tried to be very careful making this choice (they did too).

Subaru is an excellent car (read the reviews — I did) with a great reputation. The same goes for Premier’s reputation.

Obviously I want to be associated with a car which will safely deliver me to work on the days I’m there to tell you to stay home! Subaru’s are all wheel drive and (again) have a reputation for superior winter handling. I plan on putting it to the test!
