    :) Dallas TX: Prius "commercial" seen January 3rd on PBS Channel 13 at the end of "Antiques Roadshow" about 7:57 PM.

    The "commercial" begins with a Toyota wheel rolling along (Toyota logo) finally passing a Silver current model Prius in the background, young couple in the foreground. Final text reads "Moving Forward."

    Any of you PriusChat folks seen similar exposure? Is it possible Toyota will actually begin advertising the Prius?

    Is that the infamous "Wheel" commercial? Did it have a catchy tune in the background? "It's a beautiful day"

    Don't mean to hijack the Prius focus of this thread but speaking of car commercials here's a wonderful one. Too bad toyota didn't come up with it.

    It's a Quicktime movie. If the link doesn't work on your PC just do a Google search for "Honda Cog ad".
