Saw a handful of nice contenders for commercial of the week, but was really impressed with a nicely executed series of ads hyping NCAA Fotball 09’s pending release (tomorrow).

Today another big rumor is floating around that Tesla has reached a deal to sell batteries to Mercedez in their efforts to sell electic cars by 2010. With other […]

Didn’t see any commercial that blew my mind, but did see a teaser while watching television for an upcoming movie. Definitely peeked my interest. Not sure if this is the initial commercial I watched, but it’s suffice for now. http://youtube.com/watch?v=eEp7OEYt77c

Below is a video of Arnold Schwartzenegger announcing that California has secured Tesla Motor’s new production facility to mass produce electric vehicles. New Mexico was earlier announced as the destination for the facility, but the Governator (big fan and owner of a Tesla) worked hard to come up with an incentive package to get Tesla […]
