Noticed an ad for the Chevy Suburban today. They had the gall to use Bill's "WOW" designation in describing the Suburban!Granted the Suburban is a top notch bus, but does it hold a candle to one of Bill's certified HL WOWs???

Are you certain Chevy is trying to infringe on Bill's WOW? They may be tooting their horns (no pun intended) about some technological breakthrough like a vehicle that doesn't use petroleum products. You know, like the "oil free" WOW potato chips. LOL :-)

I called Chevy last night and faxed them a cease and desist order. They apologized profusely, promised never to do it again, and offered me a dream home in Hawaii plus $1 million cash every year for the rest of my life.

Then I woke up.

Well, Bill, ya gotta stand up for your rights against those big boys. Glad you took the bull by the horns to get them to acknowledge the error of their ways! With that million each year you might even be able to afford the CH1 & Coquille LE after all.

Sorry, everybody but I feel quite assured that Wow is in the public domain and can't be trademarked morally or legally.
In fact, I figure when Adam first saw Eve in the Garden, his first word probably was "Wow!".

No Paul, with utmost assurance I am certain that upon first seeing Eve, Adam exclaimed:
