    LOL! I remember these.

    I never personally knew anyone who owned one. I read numerous TERRIBLE reviews for these along w/the usual jokes.

    I love the Cog commercial. The choir one was beyond stupid, IMO.

    the Choir commercial actually won a few awards, along with this one, my personal favorite:

    In the Quattro ad, does anyone else see a little spray of snow between the wheels, about 40 seconds in? Must be from the tow rope. :D

    And, in every close shot of it going up the ramp, you can see that same snow spray. I'd say you nailed that one, Hyo. :thumb:

    That was a safety cable so it couldn't roll backwards.

    This wasn't a great ad but it did catch my attention and I ended up buying the J Lo song that was featured in it.


    It's interesting that Chrysler is back to using singers to promote cars. Long ago, they tried the same w/Celine Dion and reports were that they were a flop and were better at helping her sell music than cars.

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-b4x0mGPIc"]The Crew :)60) -- Toyota Camry - YouTube[/ame] caught my attention because I recognized James Lipton and Andrew Zimmern (of Bizarre Foods). I didn't know the other two folks Kelly Clarkson Is In The Driver’s Seat In This Toyota Camry Commercial | Music News, Reviews, and Gossip on Idolator.com mentions who the other folks are.

    I saw it I think during a broadcast of the show Off Limits - TV Shows - Travel Channel.

    In my book, this wasn't an awesome commercial but it caught my attention.
