Description

Pictured is a two-pump gas and service station on a peaceful street, and no one who works at the place has anything to do. Two of the employees are playing checkers, a squirrel sits idly in a tree, and the owner stares glumly out the window.

Did I mention they're all bobble head dolls? But there isn't any bobbling going on here. Not yet anyway.

A potential customer drives by in a Jeep Compass, but it just ends up passing by. This happens time after time, until finally the Jeep pulls up to the station. But it's not what the owner was hoping for. The window rolls down revealing a bobble head guy and woman bouncing their heads to the beat of hip hop song emanating from the vehicle. The driver throws away an empty cup and takes off, as the station owner shakes his head and the squirrel giggles.

A voiceover says, "The totally new Jeep Compass. With 30 miles per gallon on the highway. It's freedom in a whole new dimension."
