Okay, first of all the song is annoying and the people can't act.  However, my biggest complaint is that Napa's "know how" seems to be very limited.  The following commercial is basically saying "You're car isn't running right?  Uh, put new plugs in it, fill it with oil, and change the air filter."  Hey Napa, here's an idea...how about diagnosing the problem instead of just throwing out random ideas for what might fix it.  These commercials make Napa employees look like incompetent.

Have you been watching march madness? This commercial's been on all the time... It may be the most annoying tune out of any business, period.

Yeah, this one has been on all the time, and I completely agree with your assessment.  It's a ridiculous cheesy sing-along, and it just makes them look like morons.  "Your car's got a cough?  A new air filter should help it breathe!"  Wow, sounds really high-tech...

Thank you for posting this. Yeah, we're watching March Madness wall to wall and this thing is on like every single break. Yecchh.
 
And could they have found a weirder looking guy to represent them? If I worked at a NAPA counter I'd be really ticked.

the NAPA store near me has a sign out front that always posts weird sayings. Last week's was "Why is a carrot more orange than an orange?" and this week's is "Every calendar's days are numbered."
But sometimes they just post regular stuff, like "We have....(insert product here)" or "Pennzoil, 2 for 5 bucks."

Gheez, thought these were finished with the racing season. BTW, the Eagles could use some Know How about winning some games.
