Four cool dudes are cruising the city in their blue sedan. They stop at an intersection when another car pulls up alongside and stops at the red light. Turns out the second car is identical to the first–except this other ride houses a family of four–two parents, and a boy and a girl in the backseat; each kid is holding an ice cream cone.
Suddenly the cool dudes don’t feel so cool anymore. Their facial expressions of disbelief with them seated in the car suddenly turns into the car being up for sale on the autoTRADER Canada website.
We then see a wannabe cool dude trolling the site and seeing the blue ride. He and his buddy are ready to buy.
A voiceover notes that autoTRADER Canada has more sellers, buyers and vehicle inventory than anyone.
