I saw those commericials too....I voted yesterday! They need to find better file photos though for some of the pics....like the '67 Mustang....are we voting on the 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500E (as shown in pic) or the 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 (as listed)?

So they have the Ram and then the SRT10 as seperate choices... doesn't make sense. So why isn't the Silverado SS there? Bleh, stupid non-car people making these choices.
