New GMC Commercial

Man that two tone GMC grabs my attention every time she runs thru that brick wall. I had to record that on my DVR to get my daily fix of it. But some things have struck me funny while watching it.

1. That truck looks to be doing bout 75 mph there is no way mine will move that fast what was the option code for 70+ mph speeds?

2. It has to be a CA or AZ truck because I know that most of the trucks I have seen aroung here in KS would just crumble into a rust dust pile hitting that wall.

3. The new GMC ads show these trucks flying thru walls and the new Chevy ads show the trucks just siting around doing nothing are they admitting that four eyes are tougher than two?

4. When the part of the 67-72 GMC truck is over I find that I can't even focus on the rest of the commercial just keep thinking how cool that part was.

Am I the only one with some of these wierd thought when this ad is on?

Re: New GMC Commercial

um, if your truck won't do 70, then something is terribly wrong with it.

Re: New GMC Commercial

They played it a few times during the monday night game on ESPN. One of the best commercials GM has come out with in a while. 'Bout friggin time. The new trucks power/ride/handleing is AWESOME! If anyone gets the chance to drive one, do it!
