Possibly the BEST commercial of all time – “The Swagger Wagon”

This post may contain affiliate links. Please see my full disclosure statement for details.

OK – this commercial is possibly the only car commercial that has ever actually tempted me to want to buy the car it advertised!! A MUST see.

I believe minivan families just got cool….word.

Thanks to Dan @MyGreen101 for introducing me to this little piece of genius:)

    Funny, loved the music and dancing. Did you happen to see anything of the vehicle,besides the outside? I, suggest keep playing the video and skip the vehicle.

    I love these commercials! And I’ve never understood the negative stigma against minivans. We’re planning on getting one before #2 arrives!

    OK, so it annoys me to no end when they say at the end of the TV ads, “See more of the family at …” ‘Cause, really, I don’t know these people and I don’t really care.

    But that was beyond hilarious. Thanks for sharing! (FYI, I don’t know what’s up with Comment Love, but it’s a day behind. I have a new post up today that has nothing to do with Lost.)

It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just we It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just went bowling for the first time in my life! 🎳

I avoided it at first because it didn’t seem that fun. Then- because I didn’t know how to do it. But, this year I’m challenging myself to try new things. Even if I look like an idiot! Who cares?! 😃

Bottom line, loved bowling. I suck. But it’s fun! Who knew? Well, lots of people. But now me too! Also- it’s helpful to have friends that make you try new things and expand your horizons. Super grateful for mine! ❤️
