The Question Is Not WHERE Is The Gas Mileage, But WHEN Is The Gas Mileage

Classic 1992 Daniel Faraday Subaru commercial, you guys:

But here's where it gets tricky: Jeremy Davies's breakout role was in David O. Russell's 1994 film Spanking the Monkey, two years AFTER this commercial was aired. Aye-aye-aye. It's so hard to keep track. Someone should make a really elaborate and nerd-intensive timeline. Or a really simple one. (Thanks for the tip, John.)

Um, I think I hear him knocking, and I think he's coming in?

And it looks like he's bringing bucket seats, the yuppies, and Cindy Crawford with him.

Faraday wasn't feeling the 70's hippie garb, so he time traveled to the early 90's grunge era.

When they need something to put in the time capsule for 1992, I hope they choose this.
