What a dumb marketing move.. try to take away the name that your company is known best by.

that's like saying you can't say Coke anymore, only Coca Cola

ftr, i say Chevy, and i'm in my mid(ish) 30's. i think my grandmother used to say chevrolet

Hmm, maybe the smarter move would be to change their name to Chevy officially?Chat Icon

Re: Don't call it a 'Chevy'!!

I don't think I've talked about a chevy or a chevrolet in a really long time... or seen one for that matter!

Maybe they need to work on their commercials (or putting them on shows I'm apparently not DVRing and skipping)...

But you're definitely right -- we're talking about it!

I've never heard anyone in their 30s say Chevy. I've heard them say "the Chevrolet dealer" etc



And I've never heard anyone in their 30s say "Chevrolet" . . .

I don't think I've ever heard anyone under 60 refer to Chevy as Chevrolet.



I agree-I've only heard older generations say Chevrolet.



I do not think i have ever heard anyone call it a Chevrolet!!!!



haha, same here! It just takes too long to say! Chat Icon

Almost every car in Transformers 2 was a Chevy (even Bumblebee, who was originally a VW Beetle)
