Just noticed this listing on the Turner Classic Movies schedule for Saturday, August 1, 2009 (U.S., EDT):
7:39 AM Short Film: In My Merry Oldsmobile (1931) BW-6 mins,

Notice that TCM has not specified Fleischer nor animated nor anything beyond what has been pasted here, but what else could it be?

For all of us who have been hoping that the Chuck-A-Thon in March would turn out to be the start of something big, or something small, or something, anything, let’s hope that this is anything.

Just finished setting my DVR to record the movie, and of course the cartoon that follows.

I had not seen this cartoon before...and checking on IMDB, the only film with the title "In My Merry Oldsmobile" is the Fleischer cartoon.

Too bad I'll be preparing to go to work then, but if someone can rip it and make an AVI for the rest of us, I wouldn't mind downloading it if it's a tad better than the usual Archive.org edition.

Has TCM ever aired the Fleischer produced animated movie "Gulliver's Travels" (Though this movie is in public domain?)?

I would assume that is the one with the sing-a-long with the real life filming of a car.

that was a while back when I saw it but for the Guilliver's travel I don't think I haven't seen it on TMC.
