It’s MB using miltary technology to make an interesting commercial, that’s all. No more. no less.

I wish they’d return to using sex to sell cars…

Actually, I just saw a new Kia Optima ad last night and apparently someone IS still using sex to sell cars!  
And, mark my words, these ads will sell a ton of Optimas.

I think the Mazda ad would have been shown if they cut the grunting sequence while loading the furniture. That sequence was over the top - initially.
