| - | The Plymouth station wagon I have ... | 0:01 |
| Announcer | Avis is so sure | 0:02 |
| that every confirmed reservation you make, we fill, | 0:04 | |
| we make you a promise. | 0:06 | |
| Attendant | Welcome to Avis. | |
| You're next, sir. | 0:07 | |
| - | We've gotta be nice to our foreign visitors, | 0:08 |
| so I'm just letting him go in front of me. | 0:10 | |
| Announcer | If Avis can't produce | 0:12 |
| the Plymouth you reserved, | 0:13 | |
| we'll move you up to a higher-priced car, | 0:15 | |
| maybe even an Imperial, | 0:17 | |
| for exactly the same price. | 0:19 | |
| Attendant | Your car will be around about two minutes. | 0:20 |
| Thank you. Now, sir? | 0:21 | |
| - | I'm in no rush, so why don't you | 0:23 |
| take them in front of me? | 0:23 | |
| - | Howard Bolton. | |
| Attendant | You're next, sir. | 0:25 |
| - | Yes I know, but he's from Texas, | 0:26 |
| and I, I once had a lot of fun down there, | 0:29 | |
| and he's in a hurry with his oil Wells and ... | 0:31 | |
| Attendant | At last. Now, sir. | 0:32 |
| - | Yes, my name is Robert King | 0:33 |
| and, ah, I reserved a Plymouth. | 0:35 | |
| - | Ah, Mr. King, about your Plymouth, ah ... | 0:38 |
| Announcer | Now, when you reserve one car with Avis, | 0:41 |
| it's almost like reserving two: | 0:43 | |
| the Plymouth you asked for, | 0:45 | |
| and the Imperial you're hoping for. | 0:47 | |
| Attendant | Oh my, I have to give you an Imperial. | 0:48 |
| - | Aaaaawwwww ... | 0:51 |
| Announcer | If you think Avis tries harder, | 0:54 |
| you ain't seen nothing yet. | 0:56 |
