I think Ford or Dodge guys can understand a commercial like that, but somehow the toyota boys never could!

Years ago i had a Tic in my 400. I was concerned and ran it to a shop. The guy wanted to put a 350 crate in it. He said the mains are shot. I declined. It turns out that the tic was because of the leaded to unleaded gas switch. I just adjusted the timing and it has run great for quite a few years afterwards.

I enjoyed the commercial!

That commercial just gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside. (wiping tears)

Great commercial! Thanks so much for sharing. What made it even better was that his wife was just as concerned as he was. Only if we could all have wives like that.

My dad bought his for $2,700. He gave it to me in 1983. I am so proud of my ol' truck......I wanna tell everyone about it.

I remember seeing a billboard somewhere with nothing on it but the back end of a 1967 Vette. Down at the bottom it said, "Nobody ever wrote a song about a Toyota!" Want to guess what color the car was?

Re: Awesome new chevy truck commercial....

The sad thing is that people only keep a car or truck for 3 or 4 years anymore. No time to "grow up" with a truck. Same thing with houses.

My grandparents still live in the same houses that my mom and dad grew up in as kids. Where my mom and dad have each lived in 4 different houses since I was a kid.......and I'm only 32!

I'm guilty of the house thing. I've 31 and I have owned/lived in 5 houses (still own 3).

Haven't kept vehicles too long either. Oh well.
