Trucks in commercials

Ok I'm sure all of you have noticed as well as me that there are quite a few of our style trucks in commercials these days.

Are any of the trucks owned by board members?

For example the Miller High Life commercial has a 3/4 ton parked at the curb when he looks down from his apartment.

Just wondering who's got famous rides here?

Re: Trucks in commercials

theres a long thread on our trucks on TV. I think one of the guys from "are you faster than a redneck" chimed in.

theres a New Hampshire online college that uses a blue one.
theres one in the general metal buildings commercial. another blue one, GMC
the "farm Truck" is in IronMan 2
Theres one that almost causes a wreck in a vw or honda commercial. I think that one was gold.

Re: Trucks in commercials

I must not have used the correct 'search' terms because I didn't find it...

Yes SNHU has the blue truck...

I'll look harder for the thread, thanks

Re: Trucks in commercials

Cool threads, thank you.

But I was wondering if there were members rides in any of the new commercials
The trucks can't all be from studio rental lots...

Just curious.

Re: Trucks in commercials

It's been a while... but we had one member that had their truck used in a music video and another that was used as the cover shot for a new murder mystery Novel.

Re: Trucks in commercials

Yeah, the CHiP's episodes always had C series trucks in them, and John's blue square body step side.
Rockford's dad had the charcoal square body step side too...

Re: Trucks in commercials

The thread is a bit older but I wanted to share something I happened to stumble upon:

Abercrombie - Gifts with Character

Is the truck's owner a board member?

Either way, I like it.

Re: Trucks in commercials

There's a Dewars whisky commercial that shows a guy riding a motorcycle to see his buddy for a reunion and when he pulls into the drive there's, for a second, a shot of what looks to me to be a 68 fleetside. Long bed I think.
