The vid you linked to edited out the text at the end of the commercial that says something to the effect of the Taco being meteor-proof. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> '85 4Runner (mostly stock) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> | '94 Miata <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> | '98 Saturn SC2 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> | '12 Ford Fusion (wife's company car) Re: Is this a Tacoma?

I haven't been paying too much attention to Tacoma commercials, but I can think of at least two others that I've seen that obviously are aimed and the young crowd. And I mean, young as in, just out of high school young. I guess that's the demographic that Toyota is chasing with the new Tacoma. It's definately a cheaper truck. Except for the price. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> [color:"blue"]My Toyota/Expedition Website[/color] Foreign & Military Toyotas - Expedition 4x4s Our historical explorations & much more Re: Is this a Tacoma?

The Monster Truck arena one, the one where the truck goes over the cliff and flips 5x and lands on it's wheels and drives away, the one where the idiots or should I say idiots girlfriends load a foosball table in the back bed to play foosball in the woods...the guy with low esteem that gets a new one and flys overroad in it, and then this meteor one. They all suck. They remind me of the old Ford Ranger commercials of the 80's. Re: Is this a Tacoma?

How about those Burger King commercials with the freaky guy in the mask? Who the hell thought that would sell hamburgers. I'm afraid to go to BK now.

Taken frame by frame you can actually see the 1990 Mitsubishi Montero coming up from a gully alongside the Taco. The Montero absorbs the brunt of the force from the meteor causing a minor course deviation for the small suv and of course, a lot of smoke. I have no idea why that bald guy was throwing flaming motorcycles around... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Clay 1990 Montero RS (In pieces... for now) KG6VNX Moderated by  4x4Wire, 52degrees, Adam F, Axe Man, kewlynx  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Homepage Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Homepage Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Homepage Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Homepage Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts
