    Walmart Famous Cars Pickup ad

    Okay, this may be the best commercial. EVER.

      ^Yes, for sure. The Barris Batmobile is undoubtedly more famous, but then they would have had to have had at least an actor in an Adam West Batman costume.

            That was fun. I liked seeing Kitt from Knight Rider.
            You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                Should have used the 89 Batmobile, such a cool car, the Bale Bat-tank and subsequent clunky Bat-Tanks are terrible. But neat commercial anyway.

                  Really, I feel silly for pointing out any favorite car that is missing, because truly what an awesome commercial.

                    I caught something at the very end and knew enough about Sam Walton to hazard a guess that his pickup was shown pulling in at the very end of the spot.
