The ad is for bloody TOYOTA
Last I heard, Toyota is still wholly Japanese owned, they no longer have any manufacturing in this country. How dare they claim this great ‘Australian tradition ‘

I know they love their dominance of our 4wd market, but please, there is a limit

Rant over

Absolutely agree... drives me nuts when I hear it!

So the add has worked. You remember the brand name and are repeating the message. Oh what a feeling they must be have for you

Not really, are we handing over any money for their product? No. The ad in remembered in a negative way, so that's a fail in my mind.

Havent heard it at all.

they say there is no such thing as bad publicity.

As long as the comic reading advert believing lot keep buying their products as much as they do, I don't think Tojo will give a toss what owners of other makes think.

Really can’t agree with you on that. I heard the words and was just disgusted.

I just resent ANYONE from trying cash in, purporting to be something they’re not, and never can be

Banks and supermarkets are doing the same ie tapping into nationalistic sentiments.. as if they really care..bit like the man from marketing currently 'running' the country😞

See another pollie just resigned for health and family has taken the cash and signed up for a job with a dodgy corporation..makes me sick..
