Even though multiple years have passed since SNL debuted 'Dick in a Box,' it's a skit that continues to be spoofed, as seen in the 'Keys in a Box' parody from Oak Lawn Toyota.
The Lonely Island parody features two car salesmen taking the roles of the slicked back and suited-up Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg, singing a reprisal of the suggestive song that's all about cars and keys. The video is being launched as part of a Christmas campaign from Oak Lawn Toyota, promoting its 'Keys in a Box Sale Event.' Considering that the video was put together on a modest budget, it's a humorous way to revive a successful SNL skit and promote a holiday sale.
