THE SPOTs
In "Opportunity" (:30), a son confounds his parents by volunteering to pick up his sister from school. After it’s pointed out that the Montero features seven-person seating, the viewer learns his motivation: The vehicle has enough room not only for his sister, but for the entire cheerleading squad. "Stop & Go" (:30), which highlights the Galant’s safety features, shows a father risking life and limb to teach his son how to drive.
