Ran across this on the You Tubes last night. Thought you all would appreciate it.

Re: GM Promo Video for the 1972 Truck Lineup

Great videos, thanks for posting! Back in the days were you would actually want to buy a new truck, even if you didn't need one. Nice to see them sitting at factory height and with
factory wheels and hubcaps.

That was cool. And not ONCE was Connectivity, BlueTooth, or Hands Free mentioned!

I love the demonstration with the dummy bolted to the front wheel.

I love the official objective comparison to the Ford - punch the door then pound on the roof. Lol I'm sold on the double lined panels! Awesome video and awesome trucks!

Re: GM Promo Video for the 1972 Truck Lineup

Simple question....How many 67 thru 72 Brand X Trucks do you still see on the road compared to Chevrolet/GMC?

Nuff Said!

Re: GM Promo Video for the 1972 Truck Lineup

I'd like to put my deposit down on that silver and white short fleet please! Was that an available color or is it a light metallic green? Either way, I'll take it.
