    I was watching baseball the other day when this commercial came on.

    I only caught thought "Future Guy" looked an awfully lot like Michael Dorn, but didn't think it was him since he doesn't seem to do many commercials (unlike some other Trek vets *cough* Shatner *cough*)

    But it is, indeed, Mr. Dorn.

    (try to disregard the negative view of Trekkies...)

    Why they dubbed over his voice one can only guess..

    Yeah, I thought it was Dorn too, like you, I didn't think he would do a live action commercial, so I kinda ignored it.

    I wondered about the voice as well. Dorn has a great voice and does tons of voice over work. Seems odd to dub someone like him.

    He looks really aged in his shots, I thought I'd seem him looking better recently.

    Cool to see him in this. Not a bad car, either. Me growing to like American cars again. :)

    He needs to ask Will Smith and Morgan Freeman their secret.

    Yeah, Dorn is showing age. He needs to put on some weight or something

    then again... he doesn't look as old as Spiner
