Are the KIA car people repukes?

[thermodynamic]

I've seen two ads recently for the local Inver Grove (?) dealership in MN.

One features a Bush lookalike spouting off great Kia deals and a budget that congress can afford and yadda-yadda.

The other features an imitation of a caricature voice of "The Chucker", a creation of a very repuke (and equally stupid) radio DJ for a local ratio station morning show.

Is the dealership just ran by pukes or is the Kia corp pukeish too?

1. Kia is a Korean company.

2. Kia is a Korean car company.

So I doubt that it's a republican company. The owner of the dealership who made the ads probably is though; you can't blame KIA for the owner’s political beliefs.

3. Kia is actually now a subsidiary of Hyundai

just FYI

5. Hyundai is a Korean Company also.

6. it's actually a legitimate question

but Reverend Moon controls a competing auto manufacturer, "Pyonghwa Motors", so Hyundai/KIA is technically anti-GOP in an enemy of my enemy sense.

7. Idiot dealer Tony Perry Chevy used to put anti-Clinton remarks in his ads

What an idiot. He was alienating a high percentage of potential buyers, and probably an even higher percentage of buyers among the Chevrolet-buying crowd (middle class, buy American crowd).

8. I think it's all the dealer here.

Hyundai micromanages just about everything until the car is sold to the dealer. They are a smart company and would not look favorably on this dealer if they ever found out. I own a Santa Fe. It's my favorite car ever. Over 30k miles, no problem. I'd buy another. But I think the word is out and they are getting as expensive as the other small SUV's now.

9. It's the local dealer

The headquarters, or whatever, has little to do with it.

10. Doubt it

No, if the local dealer thinks that a popular radio djs endorsment will sell cars, he'll use it. It's all about money ..not politics

11. I own a '98 Kia

and I ain't no puke
