Vintage Ads: Volvo - Wife

[RobCampo]

Ohh! The good ol' days of gender roles...

[lawtowngirl85]

Honey i want a manual one not a go kart 

[katiekawaii]

Unbelievable.

[mccarrpo]

Typical woman driver.

[MasterOfFlash92]

get back to the kitchen woman and make me a sandwich!

[ivangrozny27]

lol the car salesman @ 0.39 rolling his eyes

[JoeMac824]

they clearly showed that women do not know how to drive

but i think they should have made it more realistic and show the destruction wrought by their careless behavior behind the wheel

[theindigolemon]

@JoeMac824

Men actually cause much more "destruction" behind the wheel (i.e., more destructive traffic accidents).

[tryandlisten]

And if the bitch don't like it, she knows where the kitchen is! lol :)

[volvo240maniac]

So awesome!!!!



[BrunostNOR]

Thats just hilarious!!! ;D

[michaelovitch]

[annitanguera]

@michaelovitch

So sexist...



[michaelovitch]

@annitanguera

So true....

[annitanguera]

@michaelovitch

Βy repating yourself, you re just confirming that you are sexist! Unless you do not know what exactly it means. Or how bad it is. It is a matter of education.

[michaelovitch]

@annitanguera

yes you're right

i apologise

i'm a fucking bitch.

[michaelovitch]

@annitanguera

Is it you on the pic of your channel ?

you're cute !

[Darklordkime]

[crazycool1128]

[skitch88]

[MountainAire1103]

@vintagesugar82 oh god get over yourself and get a life.

[Kingdelfrong]

Volvo for wife!

[IcelandPride]

Ha ha ha, those were the days, back when women knew their place!

[Progreen7]

Ahhh... Sandwhichs... the very FRUIT of sexism... delicious delicious fruit

[Lydster05]

@IcelandPride Why don't you get yourself a lovely dude, if you're unhappy with women?

[dogsaremykids]

thats funny because my mom taught me how to drive stick

[piratapan]

Haha, maybe she had some practice with stick before that?

[templerunes]

@dogsaremykids I bet your insurance is through the roof...

[dogsaremykids]

@templerunes not really, im paying a steady 2 grand a year, old volvos are pretty cheap, but last forever

[templerunes]

@dogsaremykids No I meant you've probably been in about 5000 accidents because a woman taught you how to drive.

[jsilence418]

@dogsaremykids And your dad taught her how to drive ' the stick' !!

[michaelovitch]

ALL the moms know how to use sticks.

[electricpandaz]

@michaelovitch hah you would

[megaangelic]

the advert speaks the truth, that red p1800 in the show room holds the world record for highest mileage without engine or transmission change, 3,000,000miles

[wireme2]

i have a 1981 Volvo 242 DL manual transmission.

women- ya feel me?

(give me high five assholes)

[dogsaremykids]

i have a 244, they are great cars do you have a turbo

[wireme2]

dogsaremykids

i do have a turbo! still running strong :]

[KomisarKatani]

melaniestevens,

if your marriage is worth ending because your husband called you an idiot, than you certainly are an idiot for getting married , since you have no idea of the value marriage and family!

[melaniestevens]

If my husband called me an idiot that would be the end of the marriage.

I still think this commercial is funny in a cute way. I cant drive a stick either. Well, I guess I could, but why

[megaangelic]

I'm going to assume from your comment that you are an American... If you have to ask WHY you should drive a manual and not an automatic... You shouldn't be on the road!!!

[pezlazzo]

good commerciall! very true

[mrhosehose]

I don't think it's to do with gender, I think it depends on which country you live in - very few cars in Britain and Europe are automatic

[70Kenny]

Sexist by today's standards, well, yes it is, but remember the commercial starts out with "If your wife won't let you buy a Volvo..."  Appears women couldn't drive stick and men couldn't handle money in the '60's. I love the red 1800 in the showroom!

[Wilbot55]

This is just shit tho

[aurelius68]

You know what I like best about this? It causes feminist idiots like Jessica Valenti to blow a gasket.

That's what I like best about this.

[mgncase]

What's idiotic about not liking it when people imply that all people of a particular gender are stupid?

[jellet35]

That is what my wife did in my new Honda...she couldn't drive a stick either. Idiot

[AdminMC]

lol ya not being taught how to drive stick because of Uterus Ownership makes you an idiot. Usually, you're only an idiot if you're entirely unable to learn how to do something, not if you've never undertaken the effort to do so. The latter is simply ignorance and has nothing to do with one's intelligence.

[CrazyDave650]

so your calling YOUR wife an idiot, if she's an idiot then why'ed you marry her, unless she's an ultrathin trophy wife with no tits

[jellet35]

I AM calling MY wife an idiot, a good idiot though, not an asshole idiot. Perhaps her ability to understand me is why I married her, not the fact that she can't drive a stick. I'm glad she can't drive a stick, and so is my restored 69 Camaro 350SS. Good to know you like ultrathin trophy women with no tits

[CrazyDave650]

nope, i laugh at them

[piratapan]

HAHAHAHA!!!!

[psykotanks]

haha, funny old commercial!
