Sweet, delicious, YouTube, is there anything you don't have?

Going on week three of post T-Cell life the pangs of withdrawal have set in. Late at night I've found myself scouring Ebay and checking out the action at Tercelonline.com but it really wasn't a substitute for the real thing.

Then I tempted fate and typed Toyota Tercel into the YouTube and hit search. In about 2.2 seconds, I realized I hit the mother lode.

Oh my stars. Where should we even begin?

Well, how 'bout here with the first Tercel commercial to ever air in America way back in 1979.



Then let's jump ahead to 1984 (Como esta George Orwell?) and check out the generation of which my T-Cell was a member.

Gotta say this commercial doesn't make a whole lotta sense but it does foreshadow the off road capabilities of the venreable Tercel.



Next, we look at proof to the theory that if someone wanted to make the greatest show in the history of television, all they would have to do is give a couple of bored teenagers who live out in the sticks a video camera, a piece of shit car and perhaps an assortment of fireworks if there's room left in the budget.

Super Jump Tercel? Please, don't be so modest with the title.



This next clip, uh, yeah, my T-Cell had been there and done that but not on purpose.



This next video was made by a guy who I can say without hesitation is a brother from another mother. Ira Glass better watch his step.



Finally, for any of you haters out there who might think Tercel worship is strictly an Amercian obsession, here's a tear jerking clip direct from Sweden.
