Ad Break: Under The Blue Arch Episode 3 – Math

Under the Blue Arch episode 3 - Match Problem No Gas

Picture this: Michael, the young son of a sales rep at the local Chevy store, is working on his math homework when two of his mom’s co-workers walk into the office. Young Michael asks the two reps for help with the following math problem: “Jim has to go to the city, which is 30 miles away. How much gas will he need to use?”

Not a second too soon, one of the reps interrupts young Mike and says: “zero, because he’s driving a fully-charged Chevy Volt.” Then the Volt-happy rep and his colleague perform a sort of a victory dance while repeating, “no gas, no gas, no gas”.

The guys didn’t help Mike with his homework… but they sure got the point across.

To us, this Under the Blue Arch episode qualifies as the funniest one yet. Have a look for yourself:

      Conversely, Jim has to go to the city which is 30 miles away. He is driving an EN-V. How far will he have to walk?
