Most all advertising is misleading in one way or another.  GM didn't invent
that.



>They said nothing about saving the environment,


Because people didn't care.  See below.

Gee, maybe if people learned to think on their own instead of relying on
other to spoon-feed the information they would have been aware.


>Of course, you remember how the "advertised" air bags in the 70s?


Again, because people didn't care.  They were, and are for the most part,
more concerned about how good it looks and how much it costs.
