A guy filmed a fantastic commercial to sell his girlfriend’s 1996 Honda Accord


Sometimes, you have to go a bit beyond Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace to sell your aging car. To help his girlfriend move her 1996 Honda Accord, Max Lanman filmed his own fantastic commercial to find a buyer.
Set to a piano score in the background, we’re treated to aerial shots of Lanman’s girlfriend (now fiancĂ©, the ad tells us) Carrie driving along California’s coastal roads along with her cat and a handy coffee pot. “Luxury is a state of mind,” the ad’s narrator intones, explaining that this is a car for “people who have figured life out and just need to get somewhere.” It’s also worth pausing the video to check out the fine print: the cat and coffee pot aren’t included, but do get the bug shield, rubber duckies, and tape converter.

The video has since gone viral, with just shy of 1.5 million views on YouTube. It seems to be effective too: in the linked eBay listing, the car has picked up over a hundred bids, with the top price an astounding $100,100. Not bad for a car with 141,095 miles on the odometer.

Google Assistant will soon be on a billion devices, and feature phones are next

As CES kicks off, Google has a massive presence: monorails, a booth that’s three times larger than last year, and likely a giant pile of news to announce. But ahead of all the actual product news, the company wants to beat its chest a little by announcing some numbers. By the end of the month, it expects that Google Assistant will be on 1 billion devices — up from 500 million this past May.   But just like Amazon, Google’s number comes with caveats. In an interview with  The Verge , Manuel Bronstein, the company’s vice president of Google Assistant, copped to it. “The largest footprint right now is on phones. On Android devices, we have a very very large footprint,” he says. He characterizes the ratio of phones as “the vast majority” of that billion number, but he won’t specify it more than that. Though he does argue that smart speakers and other connected home devices comprise a notable and growing portion. THE “VAST MAJORITY” OF THOSE BILLION DEVICES ARE ANDROID PHONES In
