DeBlog: Does Anyone Really Buy A Car For Christmas?

By Jason DeRusha, WCCO-TV

I love this Good Question, and Angie Hoff from Belle Plaine is one of a handful of people who've e-mailed this in. We see the car commercials, with the new car and the big bow in the driveway. Does anyone really get a new car for Christmas?

Do you know anyone who's done it? Would you even want a new car as a Christmas morning surprise? Share your thoughts in the comments, I may use them on TV at 10.

We're going to talk to some local car dealers and find out if this really happens (it seems like something you'd buy a girlfriend rather than a wife). And why do only Lexus and Audi dealers really advertise this?

I mean, check out the Lexus to Remember campaign on their website. And the Season of Audi campaign. I'd like to see someone give the gift of Kia.
