This was the one where the cop from Fargo (I guess it was Fargo, there was snow everywhere) pulls up behind a 2005 Ford Mustang convertible that is stopped at a light. The point they're making is that the guy must have been in sunny southern California, but he hit the accelerator and ended up in Wisconsin.
My Super Bowl ad party mates described it as "underwhelming". The car has been out for a while now. The only award it might get is the copycat award since it felt like I was watching that other car commercial where the guy drives hundreds of miles to Maine for lobster on his lunch break. Or maybe we'll have an award for commercials that make fun of people who freeze to death.


1. The Fusion commercials were directed by Joseph Kahn. The song is Brendan Benson's "Cold Hands warm heart" ----it's available on iTunes.
