"Dockers" truck - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey I just saw a truck on tv in a Dockers commercial. Just barely caught it though.

Andy4639 · 03-29-2003, 08:22 AM

I saw it all saw, it's a 69-70" blazer I think. It flippes over and lands on it wheels and the guy with the dockers hasn't gotten anything on him like the others do.

Yea, i think i saw that one, it was orange and it falls off the cliff right? I got hurt when i saw how they messed it up.

Hope only the headlight hanging out was the only damage.
Never seen the commercial until just a gew minutes ago... but as soon as I saw the roof pattern on the inside of the vehicle... I figured it was a Blazer... am I the only one who screams CHEVY everytime I see a 67-72 on TV...LOL

if i seen it right i think it was a jimmy

I'm pretty sure it was a Blazer. It looked okay except for the headlight.

bobs409 · 03-30-2003, 09:03 AM

I had one years ago that looked just like it! (only my headlights were in place)

I sure hope they didn't harm that truck for a stupid commercial! It appears that they did drop it at the very least. I remember not long ago another commercial for some type of pants used an old Pontiac. They pushed it into a lake!

When is this madness going to stop?

There are plenty of throw away cars to use. No one will miss a K-car or Escort. Heck, if they used them, it will help control the K-car population! (remember, please have your economy car nuetered or spayed)

Jwill41 · 03-30-2003, 09:37 AM

I agree but if they used the throw aways then guys like us wouldn't pay any attention.

mooneyes · 03-30-2003, 11:52 AM

....just saw it again and i was wrong it is a blazer 69-70

You can see the ad at http://www.us.dockers.com/spr03a/doc...1049129021497. I think that they used 3D animation or a model to show it flipping, etc. and then dropped the truck from a couple of feet at the end. It doesn't look like they hurt it at all just took off the front bumper and poped the headlight out (I hope)

No your not.....Last night I was watching "Momento" on DVD, and during the "I was chasing this guy" scene, they run through a trailer park type of thing and I saw the front end of a light blue 64-66 GMC or Chevrolet, I am a 67-72 guy but I like seeing all classic chevys...my girlfreind told me to shut up so she could watch the movie.........she doesn't get as excited as I do...even though she has a 63.
