    I don't think I've ever seen a billboard come to life before so I'm not sure how you can compare.

    I like the first Garmin Ad, the one where Yao is driving through a dusty old town and fills up gas, and the old guy is like, You lost? Need directions fella? And Yao's like, Nope, I've got Garmin.

    His facial expression was not very convincing.

    Interesting that they actually filmed it in Houston...I just updated my Garmin maps and they already are wrong due to the all the construction...should have had them running into a barrier or something due to a non existant exit.
