Does anyone remember this commercial?

I can't remember which brand it was for the life of me, but there was an old Truck commercial where a guy in a business suit was walking by a window display with a truck in it and then turned into a rugged mountain man-type guy. His clothes changed (flannel shirt, etc), he grew a beard...

I *think* he bulked up and his car turned into a truck, but I'm not 100% about that...

Anyone remember this one?

It's within the last few years.... I'm thinking it was Toyota Tundra? I know the person morphed (though I don't think there was any muscle involved, even under clothes), and I think a vehicle morphed.

Though I couldn't find the ad when I tried searching for it, I found this instead with a hunky half-naked man shown all-too briefly (especially the parting shot).

I don't remember the Tacoma commercial but one commercial that will always stick in my head is one of a musclebound guy in a white tank top putting logs into the back of a Chevrolet Truck. It was a very brief commercial but it was still very amazing. It was back in the mid-90's.

There was an ad for either DHL or UPS feature a guy in overalls walking across the screen picking up a hughe weight wrapped in brown paper and as he lifted it his arms burst out of the arms of the overalls. The ad must be around 20 years ago but I enjoyed watching it whenever it came on.

Ok, I found a reference for this commercial, but no luck actually tracking it down. Apparantly it was a Honda SUV ad. All of the other details are correct though...

It was for the Honda Passport. The guy doesn't bulk up any, but he grows a beard and his hair gets longer, his clothes turn to flannel, generally he looks more at home in the wilderness. I have a copy of it in QuickTime.

Ah, hehe, well it was worth a shot =)

Would you mind still uploading it somewhere? =)

I would love it if someone could possibly upload it to youtube/some other site. <3

macmanchad · #11 September 12th, 2007, 08:20 PM

I'd upload it to YouTube but when I go to upload it says not to do it as it violates copyright law.

Send it via Email?

Ohme123 · #13 September 13th, 2007, 04:23 PM

As the commercial is quite old, I don't believe anyone would care. ;P They mostly just delete music videos and stuff. My email is [email protected] though.

Since we're talking about hot commercials, EQQUS is looking for one on another thread that's getting less attention: http://www.musclegrowth.org/forum/showthread.php?t=8211.
