I'm probably a total dweeb (who just dated herself with that term) but I saw the Swagger Wagon video on youtube this morning and am SOLD! My husband is like "Awesome video, hilarious song.....they didn't show anything about the Sienna". And guess what? I DON'T CARE! I want that car so bad, so I can sing Swagger Wagon now. Has anyone seen this video? (If not, go check it out! Just go to youtube and type swagger wagon video (the official)---I love it). Jeremy thinks it's hilarious that for the first time EVER I am totally sold on something just based on catchy marketing. That's a new thing for me, very against my natural self. But, it's fun, and it makes me smile. Funny thing is, I caught him peeking at the Toyota website when I got out of the shower this morning, checking out the minivans, oooooh yeah. (ha) Has anyone else been totally won over by a great ad, and if so what?
Tracy, you crack me up. I get that mountain thing. ;)
I never saw it on TV, but then we don't really watch a lot of TV and ALWAYS fast forward commercials unless it's the Superbowl. :)
No but I have refused to buy products that have annoying commercials. At the moment there is no way in heck I will ever shop at JCP ever again thanks to those awful screaming commercials!
So funny Tracy.
My husband has had his Mazda 6 since 2003 (brand new then) and on the rare occasion that I am behind the wheel, I still whisper to myself "zoom zoom"
LOL
The most successful ads are so brilliant we dont even realize we are being influenced. The kool-aid is colorless and odorless.
My most obvious indoctination is my attraction to Blue Mountains. The Rocky Mountains on Coors Light cans are cold activated to turn blue when the beer is really cold. That is irresistable to me. I prefer the taste of Bud Light, but when I walk up to the beer cooler - when I see those blue mountains, I'm powerless. I know that beer is so cold and crisp and wonderful...."Taste the Rockies, Coors Brewing Company, Golden Colorado, Drink repsonsibly" :)
And for the 1st month that I had my Mazda, I couldn't stop saying
Zoom Zoom
Sounds like a fun video - I will definitely check it out! One product that I would love to try is pajama jeans. :-)
YUP!! My girlfriend purchased one for just that reason too!!! She was soo excited by the commericals that she pulled them up on the internet so I could see them. They were funny!!! I haven't seen them on TV? But then again, I fast forward thru commericals. Enjoy it when you get it!
I loved that ad when it came out -I had just gotten my own Swagger Wagon! You will LOVE the Sienna! It is totally a classy "Swagger Wagon" that is a very nice ride. Unfortunately I was in a wreck in December that totaled mine -so I went out and got another one! After I got the first one, I loved it one afternoon when I had it pulled around at work to load something, and one of the studio guys where I used to work walked down, saw it and said, "Ohhhhhh -you got yourself a Swagger Wagon!"
Jo W. I don't even get that JPC commercial - what's that all about!
