 Adtunes.com Forums -> Toyota Avalon Commercial -- Answered
One of the biggest things I remember from the commercial was that it had dancing shoes in it :P It was a female singer and it kind of sounded like Fisher, who sang a song for another Toyota commercial.
It's a commercial not about their cars but rather about the Toyota Comapny and how they are "moving forward" or something, basicly promoting their company.
But the commercial I'm thinking of is not the "Moving Forward" commercial it's a different one with dancing shoes and a rabbit made out of newspaper.
