As an Internet-centric hub for used-car buying, it only makes sense that Cars.com has the golden rule of viral Internet videos down: when in doubt, use a cute puppy. Their commercial highlighting the site’s no-drama car-shopping experience includes the handsome pup, but — cue the drama — it’s actually a baby wolf — and here comes its momma. We know it’s antithetical to Cars.com’s slogan, but we were actually hoping for some a little more drama in this commercial. All we got was a nasty snarl.
