    Does anyone remember a car commerical several months back, maybe even last year, where they always showed the husband and wife fighting over who was going to drive the car, or rushing out of the house first in the morning to get to the car first. Was this commerical for the Prius???
    Does anyone remember this commerical??

    It was a very funny commerical. They had scenes with one of them in the shower and the other one sneaking out of the house to get to the car first,

    I remember it. Although I can't remember which vehicle it was advertising, I am sure it wasn't a Prius.

    This is a Toyota RAV4 ad that was in New Zealand in 2006, although I don't think that its the one you are referring to, but funny none the less.

    I think that's the commerical for a Ford's (or Mercury's) new SUV.
    Yea, it's funny as the husband and wife are battling to get up earlier than the other each time just to take the car out first.

    See now, that's just silly. It's okay to fight over who's going to drive because only one person can drive at a time . . .

    Speak for yourself... I loved my Ford Explorer, and it was just big enough for the whole family. Don't need it now, but at the time it was the most efficient and best car for us.

    :cool:
