Features include:
electronic digital instrument displays,
station-seeking radio,

The making of.....Holden Thunder Ute TV commercial
Ever wondered what goes into shooting a Holden TV ad?
We asked the team behind the Holden Thunder Ute TV commercial to give us a look behind the scenes..
The commercial was filmed on location at Avalon Airport, Victoria
3 hours footage was filmed in total -- 2 of the car and 1 of the bull
A team of 40 people took part in the shoot, including actors, film crew, locations team, wardrobe, Holden reps and more.....and we filmed not 1, but 2 angry bulls!
Then the team spent 6 days in post production, to get the finished ad.
