GM Paints ‘New York Post’ Yellow For New Corn-Based Fuel

post_gm_corn.jpg

With the tagline “live green, go yellow” GM, today, has painted the homepage of the New York Post’s online site along with other sites such as the Austin American-Statesman yellow to promote the company’s E85 ethanol-fueled vehicles of which there are already 1.5 million on the road. The vehicles can run on either gasoline or the new E85 fuel. E85 fuel is 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline and is made from U.S.-grown corn and other grains. The company will introduce and promote more E85-capable vehicles mid-2006.

The yellow takeover and the ads point to a live green go yellow microsite where visitors can find out about the fuel’s benefits, how it’s made, what vehicles will run on it, play a Stalk Car Race game, see the TV and print ads and get live green go yellow goodies.
