Continuing a trend, started yesterday, of strange advertising bedfellows comes the above ad for the Toyota Tacoma. Toyota has teamed up with World of Warcraft to market the Tacoma.

This spot comes a year after South Park made a show involving WoW. That show won an Emmy at this year’s Emmy Awards and was well received in the WoW community.

It seems Toyota likes to market the Tacoma using surreal imagery, like the Loch Ness Monster ad. I could never get past the fact that the window is down the entire time the Tacoma is under water. Loch Ness Monster attacking Tacoma, still with you. Window down while truck is underwater, sorry that’s just too unbelievable for me.
