    My brother alerted me that there is a new Prius commercial out there... a red Prius... Raphael Saaqid singing... could there finally be an evolution in Prius commercials to something that might actually appeal to consumers who "don't get it yet?!"

    This is the first Prius commercial that doesn't make me want to hide in horror, inject copious amounts of insulin or worse... puke!

    Saw it on YouTube and actually enjoyed it and the music. Go Toyota! Catchy song to boot in my book! "Oh, what you're doing to me..." (y)

    (Free Kool Aid before a test drive... :rolleyes:)

    Finally, a commercial that doesn't make Prius owners look like social misfits who live in their Mom's basement.

    My brother pointed it out to me - not sure what cable station it was on so they are showing it here in CT... I actually like the song...

    And they actually showed the roomy interior and the cool gadgets...and... the song and... a red one and... oh my... "THUD"

    (I am still lightheaded after the "Whoopee" thread - mental note to self - I am so staying away from parking lots with any Prii in them....:eek: )
