      Hybrid and electric cars, alternative energy equipment and sources etc, often still require components that require fossil fuel in order mine and build them. I also wonder where these trucks are manufactured and if they follow emission regulations. For e.g. GM has plants all over the world. We often practice nimbyism (not in my backyard) here in the USA, where we just outsource out "dirty" manufacturing to other countries and pay their workers low wages.

    The commercial is brilliant because it seems heartwarming--AJ and Meadow are still alive and together, but it might also be subtly sad. The tragedy of The Sopranos is that children repeat the lives of their parents, so that Meadow, even with a Columbia degree, might become involved with organized crime and AJ becomes Little Carmine. The commercial leaves that possibility open, as Meadow is an updated version of her father.

    • @joeyc8622

(The theories that he was a secret genius seem farfetched.)

    I've seen several stunads say "the whole family was wiped out!" but that's just a ridiculous and ass ignorant thing to say. A. In the show universe it's said "families don't get touched".
    B. Throughout all the history of LCN families absolutely do not get touched unless that family member is in the life too or they are accidentally hit because they weren't aware they were present.
    In fact, in most cases I'd even say the way Phil and Tony were killed went against this rule and the fact that Phil died in front of his family is probably the only reason they did T in front of his, it couldn't stand.
    So for anyone who isn't a complete and total clown it's obvious that the only one killed was T.
    And yes, Tony is dead and there is no debate. Chase has given us every possible clue just about without just blurting out "Tony is dead!". Even on Talking Sopranos when Steve said he thinks he's still alive Chase said something like "I'm sure there's a world where that's true" meaning in the Sopranos cannon world that is not true and TONY IS DEAD. Buonanima.

    Interesting thing to note about the commercial’s geography. We see Meadow driving south on the turnpike to get to Bahr’s, however, when she is on the bridge right before arriving, she is going north (normally it’s a straight shot from the turnpike to the parkway and then to this location). Not a huge deal, just something odd I noticed as someone from the area.
