SX4 in Prilosec OTC commercial?

[Zoro]

There's a new commercial on TV for Prilosec OTC with Larry The Cable Guy and he's driving what looks like either an SX4 or a Maverick. Couldn't get a good look at the car as they didn't show the entire vehicle, just a side shot from midway up the door and up but the car is present thru the whole commercial.

Anybody else catch it? I did notice a big round reflector on the LR QP which got me thinking possibly SX4 and not a Concord.

Definitely not an AMC, it has no paddle door handle. I think it's a Pinto.

i've seen the commercial before and the first time i saw it i thought it was a sx/4 at first till i got a good look at it and it is definitely a ford pinto.

Good eyes! I've only seen that commercial once or twice, didn't even think of looking at the door handles.

First thing I noticed was the Alberta license plate.  Where did you find this picture?

I did a google image search and it was as close to the same color as the car in the ad

My best friend drives a 1980 Ford Pinto... I gotta show him this.

It's not an '80 because the rear hatch isn't all glass. I had 2 '80 Bobcats as well as some Pintos (including a '70 with 1.6L and 5 speed that was a blast to drive but was the exploding model so my ex made me get rid of it for the kid's sake)

Friends don't let friends drive Pintos...get him to upgrade to an Eagle!

I was going by the side of the front bumper at 16 seconds. It's black. The 79-80's had black plastic ends. However, now that I study it, the whole bumper may have been painted black or they have 2 different year Pintos at 16 seconds and 27 seconds. I learned to drive in my dad's 79 Pinto Wagon and briefly owned an 80 Pinto wagon. It doesn't show in the pic, but it was a total rust bucket.

I had a 77 wagon and i loved that car until the neighbor vandalized it.  i once won a bet with a guy down the block who bet me 50 bucks my pinto was more areodynamic in the back rather than the front and didn't realize it was a wagon till i pulled it out of the garage

Its either a ford pinto or a mercury bobcat ...I didn't see the elongated tail lights so I'm going with a pinto.
