Default what is this i don't even

Getting away from the fat stuff for a moment, am I the only one extremely confused by the Volvo/Twilight TV spots?

Why does this exist? I mean, I understand wanting to cash in on the incredible amount of money to be made by slapping Jacob or Edward or Bella on ANYTHING, but...Volvo? How many 13 year old girls y'all know can afford a Volvo? Or drive one that they win in some strange movie tie-in game? Perhaps this is only for the worrisome and creepy over-30 OMG TEAM EDWARD or OMG TEAM JACOB set, but still...





...wha?

Every time the car pops up, I just giggle madly. IT'S. SO. DRAMATIC. Like the Volvo is a new character in the film or something - sparklepire, shirtless faux Native American wolfboy, the wooden girl, and introducing...sleek and shiny midsize SUV!

I'm Team Volvo now. Screw Jacob & Edward, I think Bella should get it on with the SUV. At least SUVs are supposed to carry you around so you don't walk anywhere, and when they never wear shirts, you don't think that's weird, because it's an SUV, it doesn't wear shirts?
