Gulf States Toyota (GST) presents a heartfelt example of brands giving back to communities with its new campaign, "Abuelita's Food Truck.” In the documentary-style ad, a real-life Abuelita, Aurora, shares her heritage with her city, as a Tundra tows her new custom-made food truck (courtesy of Toyota) across highways and main streets, allowing Aurora’s tamales to travel and reach new people.
