Beep Business - The Many Commercials of the Road Runner, Part 2

Here are a couple more Road Runner inspired television commercials.

First, here's another Plymouth ad from 1968. This commercial is presented as a one-minute cartoon titled "Safe Drivers Always Win". Road Runner once again takes the wheel, while the Coyote tries to catch him in an Ajax Rocket Car.




After the success of the Bugs Bunny/Michael Jordan Nike commercial during the 1993 Super Bowl, the Looney Tunes started appearing in other Super Bowl ads. The LT characters were usually teamed up with various popular sports stars. Below is an ad from the 1996 Super Bowl featuring the Dallas Cowboys' Deion Sanders. His notorious speed prompted this commercial involving Wile E. Coyote and a booby trapped Pepsi machine!




That's all for now, folks!
