Grand Wagoneer Parody Commercial by Termite Offroad

Tripped across this Youtube video this morning & thought you'd enjoy. Was made by Termite Offroad of southern Mississippi. Have been watching their channel for the last couple years - is worth checking out.

The commercial is really well done. Highlights the quirks & uniqueness of vintage GW's.

Narration starts out with: "Nothing says America like a vehicle made with parts from GM, Ford & Chrysler..."

Laughed out loud when the "Squid Launcher" feature was called out: offers fresh air filtered thru piles of leaves

Enjoy!

I follow their channel as well. They have some great camping, wrenching, and FSJ oriented content.

That is so freaking funny! I loved the "patented oil leak technology" comment. :lol:

My biggest issue with these guys is that they spend 90% of the video just talking to the camera, and then they blow through the actual project super fast (usually time-lapse) so it's just like 2 minutes out of a 10 minute video that's actually working on stuff.

Awesome parody though :lol:

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to start watching them! Sad part is, most folks won't "get it" like us. Love it.
