Is it a "Rogue" model "S" car? 
So many cars now days use letters to denote different versions of the same model...
Best,
Scott

Many times this is done for the psychological shock effect. You will now remember that add until you die.

My guess, it was an Error,
But they decided it will Catch Peoples attention
I Must admit it Worked if this was their Thought.
The commercial is just a lame ad.
I Just happend to Glance up & See WHELL
at the anouncer said "4 Wheel drive" & Hit the Brakes
Rewound & Checked to see if My Eyes & Brain
were in Sinc
Don't know how long the Rogue S was out,
But I Never heard of a NISSAN ROGUE
Till I Saw the error.
I Have "Heard" Commercials By this Particular dealer
though.

Proper spelling and proper English are a thing of the past.
Even though most programs have spell-check, most of the supposed "professionals" don't seem to know how to use it. (proof-reader?)
Even the evening news has spelling mistakes - regularly. It's really a disappointment. Something for the youngsters to aspire to. NOT!
I can see a mistake once in awhile, but it is a constant thing in television and newspapers.

What I Hate with News is how they Talk in Headlines
The News annoucer comes in & Says Somthing like
"Gas line Exploding in Philly Neighborhood" then when the report comes up
they Show it Happend 2 days ago
Don't they go to school For Proper sentence Structure ?
I Know, I'm no one to Talk, But I'm not on TV Either.
I want to hear them say
"A Gasline Exploded In Philly 2 Days ago"
then go to the Report

Jeff of Pa,
Yep - EXACTLY what I meant.
You know that old Pennsylvania joke "Throw the horse over the fence, a bale of hay"??
Sentence structure has gone to the dogs, too.

Thinks that's bad, wait until your hearing goes bad and you have to use the captioning. I think most comes from overseas and a lot gets lost in the translation. Frank

Frankn Yes, yes, yes.
Our friends seem to time their phone calls to match one of the few programs we watch on a regular basis (like IRT), so we use the closed caption feature. Some of it is horrendous!!
Do they know how to use punctuation?

Beth: they only heard about punctuation through Victor Borge, the same guy who gave us "Inflationary Language".
I liked Borge better, though.
As a proof-reader for a major West Coast newspaper, I routinely caught typhos such as "This coupon good for $100 off the car of your choice." There was no limit to the number of coupons you could redeem. Someone bought 100 copies of the paper, got 100 coupons, and bought the car for the price of 100 copies of the paper.
Worse was the poor punctuation in movie ads. I had a fit when a so-called family newspaper printed ads for "40 Year-Old Virgin". I attempted to explain that there was only one thing this suggested, and that there are few year-old non-virgins. I was informed "the advertiser is always right." Still sounded like child-abuse to me.

WOW!
Victor Borge - haven't heard THAT name in awhile. I remember that "routine" - Phonetic Punctuation, period.
Then comma, when I went to the store comma, I saw the light change period. I saw someone getting ready to cross period. I yelled at them, exclamation point. Hey comma exclamation point I said comma wait for the light to turn green again period.
Good memories period end of sentence

Dosn't bother Me unless the Person Misspelling
or mispronuncing, is considerd more Educated then Me.
Especially by themseves
IF they consider us Equals, They can talk & spell
like They just leaned how for all I Care.
In other words, If they feel they are Better then me,
& get Paid Because of it, They better Prove they are
to earn my respect. not "Act", "Prove"
