GMC Offers Free Valet Parking to Southern Shoppers, Forgets North
With help from Dalla-based AdverTickets, GMC is offering free valet parking to shoppers in eight cities as part of a promotion for the car maker's new Acadia SUVation wagon crossover vehicle. shoppers in LA. Miami, Orlando, Phoenix, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco and Tampa will be given tickets good for free valet parking. Also part of the promotion are Boom-Ads, wraps that cover the gates drivers who choose not to valet park must pass through to get into parking structures.
We think it's all well and good to help a struggling shopper out but hello? It's winter up here in the Northern half! We could certainly use the luxury of valet parking far more than all those warm staters who should enjoy walking from their car to the mall whereas those of us up here have to endure frostbite weather and the pummeling of winter winds. Something's wrong here.

So who said GM knew what they were doing in the first place. GM is on a big down hill slope and going very fast with a rock pile at the bottom. They need to find marketing people who know a little about the industry and consumers. The ones they have now don't, and it's unlikely they are really marketing people. Now I feel better.
