More power too him, its better for him to make money off of it than to have his music imitated. Remember all those Moby rip-off commercials from the late 90s?]]>Oct 24th 2007 3:15PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/however, the folks in the office were talking the other day how any time we here Bob Segar singing we think of a chevy trucks going over gravel hills and how much we cant take Segar anymore.. its like your singing to the maxwell house coffee lady.
or how Phil Collins became the Disney sell out. you cant listen to him without thinking of a Disney movie sap story.
but so be it. if thats what you want to do... go bob.]]>Oct 23rd 2007 8:40AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/
Dylan's voice however, annoys the piss out of me. Great lyricist, phenom on the guitar.]]>Oct 23rd 2007 9:11AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/i used to be able to handle Segar..
but you cant tell me you can listen to "like a rock" and not imagine a construction site with huge p/u truck bouncing around...
unfortunately it has been jammed down our throats for so many years, that i now associate his voice instantly to a chevy scene.]]>Oct 23rd 2007 9:22AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 8:58AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/
And I have no problem with Dylan doing a commercial. My only complaint is the lack of a soy bomb in the spot. ]]>Oct 23rd 2007 9:39AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 12:22PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/
A musician at the peak of his popularity who sells it for money is a sell out. Dylan's glory days are long behind him, and cashing in now, when the lights have dimmed, is just an old man enjoying his twlight years.]]>Oct 23rd 2007 1:35PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 9:03AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/
I seriously doubt that Dylan fans will be persuaded to chunk down $60K for an Escalade just because Bob appeared for 30 seconds to make an abstract remark about taking detours. Plus, he gets Cadillac to pay him to plug his own radio show.]]>Oct 23rd 2007 9:13AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/If he can get money out of it, too, good for him.]]>Oct 23rd 2007 10:58AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 9:15AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 9:21AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 9:25AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/
It's only recently they managed to make the Escalade something you *might* want, though. Before, it didn't really suck per se, but it wasn't that great. The fact that it literally was no different than a Suburban other than the Cadillac badges didn't help either.

The latest ones are definitely a huge improvement. Regardless, its still a lard car, also known as a SUV. Nothing will change that embarrasing fact.]]>Oct 23rd 2007 9:55AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 10:39AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Oct 23rd 2007 11:16AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/So unamused
At the autos of the rich
And the gasoline they used--
Go to them now, they call you
You can't refuse...]]>Oct 23rd 2007 1:11PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/23/dylan-pulls-off-highway-61-in-sellout-ville-driving-escalade/Or it's okay only if you represent foreign brands?

Hell, we ought to all just be happy Bob doesn't show his crack to the papparazzi every time he gets out of a car. You wanna whine about entertainers - there are far worse than Bob Dylan (on his worst day) to complain about. ]]>Oct 23rd 2007 2:57PM
