Happy Birthday, Jeep! - Neatorama

Jeep turns 66 this year and celebrate it with a great video commercial.

I love the song in this commercial to death. I am so glad they didn't get a cheap cover band to redo it. And I'm glad they didn't place it to avoid the mild curse:

"He can't even run his own life,
I'll be damned if he'll run mine!"

Jonathan Edwards, a singer-songwriter from the early 70's. I think that may have been his only hit.

Ah, see, that's what I get for taking a moment to check my facts. Scooped by a minute!

I always wanted a jeep. :( But as an environmentally friendly guy I keep kicking myself...*sniff*

Video: clever.
Audio: no apparent connection.

I am no more persuaded to buy a Jeep now than I was before this ad. In fact, because of the disconnect, I may be slightly less persuaded. Typical come on. Yawn.

Let's not forget his classic tune "Shanty."

That's the great band Devo.

After hearing this song during every single blasted commercial break, I think I'll ram the next Jeep I see.
