How Do You Sell Pickup Trucks In Asia? Toyota Says 'Insane Dance Video'
How Do You Sell Pickup Trucks In Asia? Toyota Says 'Insane Dance Video'-September 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:24

In Mother 'Murica, you sell pickup trucks with Bob Seger. The King Ranch. Floor-spittin' horse-towing Marlboro-Man shit. Down east they do it a little different; Toyota's just commissioned their own Gangnam Style-style dance number to sell their Hilux pickup and it is batshit insane.

Ad agency Dentsu Aegis cooked up this "dance-ver-tisement" (like that? AdWeek went with adver-dance-ment) with the simple tagline:

"Strange things happen when nature calls in the jungle."

Basically a pack of business men are tooling around the woods in office attire doing the Night At The Roxbury head-dance, collectively decide to urinate, and when they apparently cross the streams on a delightfully cheesy fake gorilla's head, group-dance ensues.

It's actually pretty funny, and if you've been dying for a replacement to What Does The Fox Say since that burned a hole in your headphones you just might dance into Toyota's marketing trap and find yourself "."

In case you haven't figured it out yet, Toyota wants you to film yourself Wakudoki'ing, send them the video and hashtag the shit out of it for a chance to WiN a TrIp To ToKyo!

I actually love this beat, but I have multiple NSYNC CDs in my car's changer so don't take my word for it.

Special thanks to Patrick George for sending me this at who cited who apparently picked it up off .

2013 Was Jeep's Best Year Ever
Well, in terms of sales performance. It's not like they revived the Wagoneer or anything. Chrysler sold 731,565 Jeeps last year, up 4% from 701,626 sold in 2012. In fact, 2013 was the fourth consecutive year of sales increases for Jeep both domestically and abroad. So despite how you feel...
