- Dealer / new customer videodisc showing the new 83 Chevy pickup line. Now with the 6.2 Diesel as an option!
Some sequences look like they were done in Magi Synthavision, like at 7:59.

My grandpa bought a new one in 87. The last year of the square body and first year for throttle body fuel injection. Had a fuel injected 350 that made 200hp 😂. It was a total slug but it drove and rode good! It was brown and cream colored with long bed . Him and I had lots of fun in it. Wish I could go back
It will never be as great as the 80s, ever🤠
I have a 1984 Silverado i'm restoring.After I had the engine rebuilt,I drove it to a transmission shop to have the Transmission rebuilt.This is the kind of shop that removes the transmission,and disassembles it in front of you. It took them 35 mins to remove,and disassemble the transmission,and the shop owner said today's cars would have been towed in,with the kind of damage my transmission had.$450 and 1 day later I drove my truck home,with a 2yr warranty.The shop owner said he cannot offer a 2yr warranty,with today's transmissions they are just to delicate.By the way my trans still had the original factory internal parts,and my engine still had the original factory metal head gaskets.Its amazing my engine and transmission survived 32yrs before they got there first rebuild.
Anomaly
Jesse Aguilar my dad has a 89 s10 2.8 5 speed 4x4 he had to replace the tranny cause no ever put gear oil in it it still had tranny fluid in it so it died and engine wise it’s only had the oil pump replaced and it has 350k give or take never been rebuilt except the oil pump had to replace the trans and it came out of a 140k miles truck from a junkyard when my dads truck had 150k on it when he swapped it still runs great rear ends gettin loud though
The th350 is one tough transmission
You spent 450 to have a transmission rebuit? Cost me 1400. Eeegggghhhh
What youre doing is astronomically cheaper than buying a new truck, and you will end up with one thats better built and longer lasting.
The thing I love about these trucks is their simplicity. Today's vehicles have too many computerized components. Wifi this, touch screen that. Just give me a strong reliable motor and I'm a happy camper.
Charlie5thumbs I hear you man. I have a 96 Ford F150 with 5.0L Windsor V8 with 203,393 miles on it and it's still going strong.
My 1988 Chevy. had over 400,000 on it when when my blow up the engine by not checking the oil. My 1991 Chevy has 350,000 and still go. Had a 2001, and a 2000 Chevy. Went back to the 91
Charlie5thumbs a strong engine, transmission and gear ratio and you have yourself real truck.
The newer pickups have a better looking hood and grille
no new trucks are ugly as sin
It's too bad you don;t see many of these anymore. The square bodies were such good looking trucks.
Ike Lol where do you live? I see them everyday 😂
in central TX. you see a few here and there but folks drive crazy here so nothing lasts.
Ike and really reliable. my 85 c20 is still kickin and has never let me down. I even overloaded the payload with a home improvement project I was doing and it still kept up with traffic on the highway and even uphill
They was and still are good looking trucks they tried to bring back the square body look in 2014 and failed miserably
I got one. Check out my channel
This marketing video is amazing! It is almost brings a tear to my eyes. The kinds of ads are why I went with Chevy's from the start. They actually show the parts on the truck and and why they are on there. And even show under the hood and say how easy servicing is (not even possible in some trucks today!). No ads today comes close to this one. All manufacturers want to show today is the fancy electronic gizmos, nothing that somebody who actually needs a truck should really care about. Contrary to what the manufacturers think, not everybody needs an overpriced off-road beast truck. This video is what a truck is supposed to be! They can make more base trucks today, but they make more money off the higher-end versions.
The first place I'll go in a time machine is a chevy dealer in the 80s. Gonna stick one of these in a barn and come back for it in the present. Replace all the deteriorated hoses and lines and boom, a brand new 30 year old truck. Perfectly preserved.
At least that's what I'd do if he had time machines...
I don't know know why, but I always dream of this..just to go back in time and a buy a bunch of square bodys new from the dealer and preserve them for later.. one man can only wish :(
You would be alot better off going back to get a 1971 triple black hemi cuda convertible bring that back to know with close to no original miles on it and you could probably get a million dollars or more no sweat.
Yea back when you could still pay cash for a truck. While you there invest a thousand dollars on Apple LMAO
lol, why would you go to the 80s? I'd get a '37 Studebaker coupe express, or a '48 Diamond T, or Dodge Power Wagon.
Why wouldn’t you just drive it and take care of it lol I love my 83
One thing I've noticed about Chevy pickups is they hold their value much better than others and I think that says a lot
Hahaha....idiot
dude was crusin' around with a 12" adjustable wrench in his hand.
Steve Stanley fixin’ to break some kneecaps
Steve Stanley when you drive a Chevy you ride around with tools
J G bahahahahahha
@@jg7041 his own, just another dangerous GM pickup that's never been improved 2020 trucks are even more lame (pass a crash test? not a chance!)
"I took care of that thing for you."
This were Trucks... today's trucks are for just for groceries
hmm, well at 1:42 it says the '83 chevy 1ton dually will tow "up to 13,000 pounds". A 2016 model 1 ton dually (from any of the 3 brands) will tow up to 30,000 pounds. That's a LOT of groceries!
Sho' Nuff well, not just for groceries, but for other stuff.
Sho' Nuff and flowers 😂😂😂😂
Sho' Nuff Oh definitely my friend.
kbjcda Yeah but the new one is still overpriced looks ugly to.
I like the 4WD section. The drivers are bouncing around pretty good haha. the sad part is, a brand new 2016 couldn't do what those trucks did over 30 yrs ago. There would be plastic smashing everywhere, air bags going off and traction lights coming on.
thats why i turn off my TC and stabiltrak always, and ive kicked mine around, i can guarantee that they are still built well
I've verified that when these old trucks were built 16-18 gauge sheet metal was used, while nowadays 20-22 is the norm even for trucks. Ever wonder why you see people close their doors and the metal flutters? Fords are brutal for this, the 2007 and newer GM trucks have fluttering hoods at highway speeds. They call it dent resistant, I call it BS. Also the OEM's now consider glass as part of measuring the structural integrity for a vehicle, including trucks. Are newer vehicles safer all around? yes. Are older vehicles safer in fender benders? yes. Are newer trucks more powerful? obviously. More capable off road? Not a chance. After plowing snow and driving in the bush with a 2015 3/4 ton chevy. My 85 1 ton 4WD is twice the truck plowing snow and venturing offroad by a long shot. Not as comfortable though. But its a truck, not a car. I prefer the KISS principal brought to us by the US Navy.
jingorat that's actually not true
This series of GM trucks were notorious rust buckets. I don't know what gauge metal they were made of but they were bad. The generation previous to these ('67-'72) were far better trucks.
its how the steel was treated, it was solid, but it wasnt treated, and ive owned my fair share of 67-72s, the outside didnt rot bad, but the floors and inside of the box and fenderwells rusted out just as bad
Oh how I wish that they would bring back the manual transmission
me too, just don't like an automatic in a truck, never did and never will but I guess we'll have to dream on, learned to drive on a 1975 c 10 3 speed on the column, 350 engine wish I had it back.
you can order a new truck with a manual if you want.
I still drive one
@@jrodificator1 Try to get one from any of the Big Three.
@@seththomas9105 Ram offered Manual transmissions up to 2018 model year 2500 and 3500 but no longer do as of 2019 model year trucks. Chevy and Ford stopped offering manual a long time ago.
I used to have an 85 Scottsdale. It was probably the best vehicle I've ever owned. I really miss that truck.
I could watch C10 footage all day.
TN, MS, PA, OH still see quite a few on the roads today. Mostly beaters. But now and then I'll see one looking super clean.
I've got an 83 GMC 1/2 ton my grandpa bought new. I love that truck.
That early to mid 80's style was and is my favorite.
I had the Silverado model. Best pickup I ever owned.
40 gal tanks and No Computer think I found my “BUG OUT” vehicle 🔥🙌🏽. Love these trucks!!!!
The gas engines had a computer but it didn't do much.
First truck I ever owned was a '95 C1500 Silverado. Had power locks and power windows, and that was it. It was the perfect truck for me.
Just to think that the Silverado was just a trim level...
The Poor Gamer most GM names were just trim levels then became its own model later on.
Ranger used to be a trim level for Ford trucks too, and Explorer used to be a trim package.
@@chumbawaumbacumpa my grandpa's old F-350 had the Explorer package.
@@AlexR2648 My F-150’s trim level is Ranger.
My dad had the Scottsdale trim, first truck he ever let me drive in his lap. Good memories!
The 80s must have been so nice
First truck I bought was an '83 Scottsdale.
Drove it for 12 years and loved every minute of it.
Wish I didn't have to sell it.
Aerodynamic that's funny. About as aerodynamic as a brick wall lol
I've always said they have the aerodynamics of a brick. Lol
About as aerodynamic as a Bricknose!
@@dylansnyder7757 a
I had an 08 Avalanche that I just sold and I just bought an 87 Silverado and I like driving the 87 more than the 08. They just don't build them like they used to.
381 322 I also just bought a 94 Chevy Silverado in November and love it! I am using it for my daily driver.
1998 K1500 with 199,000 miles! Pulls a 4,500 lb boat 1,200 miles lol
Robalo Boat
They sure don't my brother has a 83 k10 I'm gonna try to get off of him he baught it a month ago it has no rust at all
Got a 82 GMC K1500 with a 305 and a 3 speed manual. It's the love of my life...
Nothing like the 3/4 ton 4x4s.
The 80's was the best!
Yea that was a decade .
Love the axle ratio and transmission options, wish trucks these days would have that kind of customization
Regardless of if you like Chevy Dodge, Ford or whoever else. This was back when men were men, trucks were trucks with leaf springs and you could smoke cigarettes anywhere you wanted
OSDCrusher Well said 🇺🇸
If you can smoke a cigarette you can throw that shit on the ground and get back to work these trucks are nice but would never work for me I need to move 3 pallets of shingles on a trailer and one on the bed guys still smoke at work but that's all they do smoking is bs work yourself to death is how it should be 12 hour work days
OSDCrusher No offense but the trucks back then especially Chevy would rust on the lot, had weak engines, wouldn’t haul half the crap of s new one. It is also nice not to smell the smoke of people’s who rudely smoked and had everything stinking.
What’s a Chevy doge.
you can smoke anywhere you want as long as i dont smell your smoke
I've always loved the steel rims on the old school Chevy's since way back when.
Whether it's a ford, a Chevy, or a dodge, all three of them made very reliable old trucks back in the day, and what I like about them is how tough and reliable they are even in today's modern times. They say old cars break but my mom's SUV has been in the shop more than my old ford.
Traindriver844 its called planned obsolescence . the vehicles today much like computers, which technically todays vehicles are glorified computers, they're designed & manufactured to be broken & obsolete within a certain amount of time. best thing i can point to as proof of this, "smart" phones. u buy it get used to it BAMN s8, iphone8, lgv25 etc etc is being released next week
@@DIRTDIVER882 most of the time when I see a phone being replaced is due too either an accident or they just want the new one despite it still working look at base model F250 looks pretty simple and them look at a king ranch, you can choose to have simplicity or loaded with luxuries I like how most work trucks have vinyl seats and rubber floors now easy to clean up
@@bryanmartinez6600 Ford is pure junk always have been
@@justenough730 a spider injector is a pita took gm too damn long to go to mpfi also gm hardly gives you any damn room to work with pulled the transmission out my Silverado and the top bolt was a pita also the starter wires are between the manifold and the frame can barely get my arm between there also front ends on Chevy are so damn weak the coils look like they came off my Honda Civic
Dan Bouchard bullshit
Consider this a time machine of past American quality thats now long gone and rare to see preserved.
Loved these trucks!! Wooow! Especially the military version
Chevy's run for ever
Till your 4L60E blows again
Mateo Lemus Yea, you cut the key off and they keep running.
Mateo Lemus Back In 1983 They we’re tanks
With that bogged out sound and lack of power , but they can rack up some miles
I love the two-toned paint schemes
My 1983 fleetside 8 foot box single cab is the best truck I've ever owned and ill never get rid of my big blue ox
These were some of the very best Chevy trucks built! Their only weakness was the body panels rusting to soon! But I’m right now looking at one about the same year, that’s Military Surplus. The truck is a 3/4 ton 4x4, with I believe is a 6.2-6.5? Diesel, non turbo. There’s absolutely no rust of any type, only 67,000 miles and runs very good, or as well as can be expected. The previous owner added new Dual Exhaust Custom made from 2.75” tubing, with two nice fairly quiet mufflers. The gearing is 4:10 by the count of revolutions of driveshaft to wheels, with locking differentials, the front added by last owner. He also stripped the OD Green paint color off, but not to bare metal, had Bed Liner added to the bed along with about 8” up from the bottom, along with underneath. If I can get it for the right price I plan on buying it. I have access to a lightly used Banks Sidewinder Turbo Kit to add on. The only issues will be price and Wife, she is not to keen on having a Reg Cab, as we need any truck we have to tow our Travel Trailer whenever we want. Price is also an issue due to the fact we must buy a second vehicle that has 4 doors and be fairly nice. In a perfect world for me, I would love to do a DuraMax swap, tuned down to match up with the 4R80 trans that’s in the truck now, or at least a nice LS/LT Crate Engine. Then get a nice Lance Slide In Truck Camper, with the rear cab window removed and sealed to the Camper, so the dogs could be more comfortable! Oh and add a good A/C system!
”Some Chevy pickups seem to last forever”
*has 32 year old R10 that still works*
Have an 82 4x4 3/4 350 Silverado and it still kicks ass!
I owned these trucks since I was 16 they were great to me about 10 years ago I bought a Duramax owned it for a little while sold it and bought another one of these a nice little 86 nothing's better than these style trucks
These truck are great, you will still see them on the road and common
"heavily treated to fight corrosion".....for 2 years.
TierodMcslush Me and my dad has a 87’ C10 and it hardly has any rust.
If that. I have an 84 K10 and the only body panel on it that doesn't have a rust hole in it is the hood and it's Not even the original one.
In the east coast with all the road salt they last about 15 minutes
Corvettegirl 1994 you right I got two Silverado’s too and they are clean ✌🏼
Ive got a 86 silverado minimal rust
73-87-91 some of the most sought after chevy trucks!
Dime Fever are they? I didn't know they were that wanted.
Dime Fever that body style they made the regular cab pickups with single rear wheels from 1973 through 1987, but all the crew cab pickups, Suburbans, & K-5 Blazers, they made from 1973 through 1991. Also if I'm not mistaking I think they still continued making regular cab pickups with dual rear wheels & regular cab 1 ton chassis cabs with both single & dual rear wheels up through 1989.
I have a 2015 K1500 and Its a nice truck... But I still love driving my 1984 K30 diesel. Just feels like a truck should!
I’m sorry but a 2015 K1500 doesn’t exist.
them old trucks were rugged and tough
Until they had a vacuum leak and ran like trash
Taylor Snyder The bodies were good except for a rust problem but the engines were weak.
@@melrose9252 Lol have you ever owned one? Mines clean as the day GM made her because it got washed! And the stock 454 in my truck will burn 37 inch tires clean off.
I have an 86 and I'm only 31 but I bet some of the younger guys that see this are going to be like "what's a 3 speed manual transmission? " I love these older trucks ,even the Fords and Dodges too.
Back when everything was made in the USA
Love these trucks so many options and colors in the interior and exterior and even the trim levels had a name
Back when advertising didn't bullshit you. I love the old school white walls .
I'm in the process of restoring an 82. Rust has been the problem, after market replacement panels have been a pain in the ass but it's fun those trucks had a feel that new ones don't have
I had a 79 gmc half ton 6 cylinder it got 22mpg highway. My 2007 gets 18.
That's great my 2007 gets 17 mpg. But we get 190hp now out of v-6
I own a 82 Chevy C30 crew cab dually. Best damn truck in the world. Will NEVER get rid of it.
Back when odometers were 5 digit instead of 6. Today's trucks are better in terms of tech but these trucks look better & id say have tougher bodies (although they had a bad rust issue). Love them old boxy body chevys!!!
My 87 has 6 digits
These trucks are way better than modern day trucks
K J thanks but i prefer the 80s chevy pickup truck cuz it looks sexy
And they looked like trucks, not full of crap like today.
really nice too see this promo, this is when we had real cars, not these egg shaped balloons
Abodz A Amen Brother and new vehicles are disposable, overpriced, and look ugly as well.
I don't know if i agree with new cars being disposable, A lot of vehicles in the 70s needed engine rebuilds around a hundred thousand Kilometers.
It’s almost like the “egg shape” gets better gas mileage more than a box shape.
Aerodynamics are something to think about while making a daily/grocery getter.
But if your looking for a box the new trucks are still boxes and also the Dodge Challenger is a box also.
99% of the trucks shown here are still regular cabs. 99% of the new trucks you see now are extended, crew, or mega cabs.
Pita to work with a single cab it fills jobsites because everyone has to bring their own. Also if you have delicate tools such as power drills nail guns saws and other tools I toss them in the back so they don't get soaked in rainstorms
Id buy one of these new today. It would be awesome if Chevy did a retro year model series. Where the truck is identical to the ones in the 80's but much cheaper now days.
I really miss those trucks. Thats back when the American auto companies really made a good, long lasting truck. They were expensive back then, but no where near the insanity they want for new ones. I would buy one of these trucks in a heart beat over a 2020 truck. ☹
Have the exact same truck and colors as the one in the intro. Bought it for $900 cash hoping it would last for a summer while doing major building renovations - hauling plywood/sheetrock, dump runs etc. That was some years ago and this thing keeps going and going. Random people give me compliments on the truck at Home Depot, lol. Going to keep it because I love it for the hard-working dinosaur it has become. It will haul 2,200 lbs in the bed before the steering gets a little dicey (certified ticket from landfill). Insurance is surprisingly expensive due to lack of safety features I imagine.
Even the 250 -6 banger was badass!!
Roy Miller What was badass about it?
For me it was a reliable diehard work horse, it never backed down from a load I over loaded on the trailer, it didn’t like a lot of them but it got er done abused it till 129000 miles blew a head gasket, then I built a 350 and installed it! Ran it for another 15 yrs! Gave the 6cyl to a friend he worked the head stuck it in a houseboat ‘, as far as I know it’s still tooling up & down Tn. River
Ah I miss a good old fashioned fast forward through the credits
That part were it said the steel will not rot for a long time that's funny explain that to my cab
A rot hole directly behind the doors toward the bottom...yeah got some of that too >_
This was the 10th anniversary of the 1973-1987 design and it was still going strong in 1983. Too many redesigns nowadays.
Ending in 1991 With Suburban Blazer and Jimmy.
I owned a 1983 custom deluxe long bed with the blue interior. Truck had a 305 v8. It was not fast , terrible on fuel economy, body was rusting through but the engine was very reliable.
Still have the '86 K 10 I bought new and never plan to get another truck!!
Chevy made the best trucks in those days.
They looked good with those whitewall tires.
Way better looking trucks than Ford.
Still more Chevys of that era on the road now.
ATXMEX Vato Yup even though "63 out of 100 Ford trucks ever sence 1963 are still on the job" haha, I'd take a Chevy over any Ford any day.
Puro Eastside Vato yeah
Those sound effects around 7:45 remind me of a Scooby Doo cartoon.
Lol
I have a rust free 85 2wd.owned almost 19 years.I will own it till I die.
14:00 now that’s what they need to put these new trucks to the test, good ol rough terrain! Not just pebbles and small puddles like today’s truck commercials
I just went down my memory lane
Thanks
Excelente camioneta para mí la mejor del segmento. Yo tuve una GMC Sierra V8 modelo 1984 caja larga. Greetings from Guadalajara México.
I have a '84 C10 Suburban V8-350 in Tokyo Japan …. Nice Vid
How the hell can you even drive through those tight streets I'd love to have a kei car in the US looks adorable :3 makes the Civic look like a town car
Hey make a vid and post it on RUclips. I'll watch it lol
15:57 WAS SO BEAUTIFUL WHEN HE SAID FRONT SOLDID AXLE UP FRONT WHY DO I SAY BEAUTIFUL BECAUSE CHEVY DOSENT MAKE STRAIGHT SOLID FRONT AXLES ANY MORE 😭😭😭
I love the use of the first three seconds of the laserdisc for text "slides" of various sorts. I suppose the disc was programmed to allow stepping through them all? Sony did that and more with their CRV discs 15 years later., running both videos and still graphics from the same disc at their business meetings.
Yes! There's an audio track with programming instructions for the LD player. It built a little quiz where you'd use a phone keypad on the remote to answer questions.
35 years later, I think they were right - these trucks ended up exceeding expectations - still a usable, durable vehicle in 2018
Late 2019 and I just hauled 2200lbs of roofing to the dump and picked up 40 sheets of OSB on the way back (1983 C10). Love my old truck with working original AM/FM radio cassette. and doors you have to absolutely slam to close properly.
I've seen 4 or 5 over the last decade
I had a '77 Stepside (same as '83, just different grill). Now that was a basic truck! 250 six/3 on the column.....the only option it had was power steering. I liked it a lot, but eventually it got so rusty I had to junk it. The cab mounts were gone, and the rear fenders on the stepside box were flapping in the breeze
I love how they explain the technology of the truck they don't do that anymore
I have an 87 version with a 5.3 fuel injected engine. Love it
I own a 1986 Silverado. Had it 24 years now. I replaced the tired 305 with a crate 350. Big difference. I'm asked on a daily bases if it's for sale. A/c can't keep up with this texas heat.
why can't they just remake and resale this trucks and iron out the few problems they have? they ever remake these trucks and I have the cash to buy one I'll be first in line
The Chevy / GMC trucks of this era were rust buckets.
4thstooge add a couple alloys into the metal and add some thicker paint and rust won't be a problem for a long time and even with a modern day vehicle (even thou they are mostly plastic) will rust to if you don't take care of them.
jizzanthapuss maammarata Yep; just add a few more alloys in there, and steel will last forever. Face palm.
Icutmetal yep which is why I'm the smartest of all humans.
381 322 Just might have to do that, and or hopefully I'm the future someone will make a company where they specifically remake these older vehicles brand new for people who don't want the newer garbage. If I ever win the lotto that's what I'll do.
I would love to have one of these trucks. So cool!!
When life was so much easier.
Dominik Placek not really
I am a hard core chevy guy ,Chevy has and will be in my family. I am bow tie till I die. I love my 79 and my 78 chevy along bed trucks ,even my 2011 pickup
I use an '85 k20 silverado as a wood truck. I have tried a few other trucks but always seem to end up back in the k20. I sort of regret working it so hard in part because it has a federal vin so stock it had very little smog. It started life as a US forest service truck.
Bring these good simple tricks back ): Chevy please (:
Thanks for uploading. It really helps with restorations. :)
Glad it helped!
A real mans truck...if you had "power tailgate" back in the 80s, people would call you a weak sissy and laugh when it breaks almost immediately
So a truck trim "Silverado" came to be a truck model
yup and that did not happen realy until 1999 before that it was still a Trim level..
Los Ojos De HotSpanish the Silverado trim package came out back in 1975 which replaced the previous Cheyenne Super trim package.
Yeap
@@kevinrichards3288 the cheyenne package stayed around through the early nineties
@@marcusc110 yes the base Cheyenne but I was talking about the Cheyenne Super which was a top of the line trim package that came out back in somewhere from 1969 to 1971 & was replaced by the new top of the line Silverado trim package in 1975.
Thanks for sharing these!
I would give up the souls of my 2 children to go back to relive the late ‘70’s and early ‘80’s. Please?
I do miss the way these trucks look, they remind me of my highschool and early adult years. These trucks had style, character and class compared today’s newer vehicles. I especially liked the round eyes version of the 70s; But GM, Ford and Dodge put out absolute shit powertrains and fuel delivery systems during the 70s & 80s. Me and my buddy’s growing up we’re pissed and didn’t think much of the cars we got during our time. We missed out on the muscle car era of the mid 60s to early 70s, the glory days for GM. Big engines 4 bbl carbs and big horsepower, didnt have all the fuel, emission and evap parts they did in the 70s. The big 3 took forever to offer fuel injection and just didnt want to give up the carb. It wasn’t until the 90s that I saw GM come out with a stock small block V8 put out 300hp. GM had developed fuel injection in the fifties, I can remember a man on my street owned a 1967 stingray corvette with a big block V8 and fuel injection; there is no reason why it took until the last year of the squares to offer the tbi’s. And they definitely didn’t give a shit about you after you drove off the lot and they did not offer warranties like they do today. I did buy a k10 Scottsdale in 1987 brand new off the lot when I turned 20. It had a 350 small block and 4speed w/OD, it had more HP, was better towing and was much better fuel mileage, it was a dream not having to mess with a carburetor. I had to buy a ‘90 K1500 Scottsdale because my ‘87 was rusting and staring to rot away after only 4 years (the Achilles heel of the squares) These trucks were robbed of their true HP and overall performance for most of their production run because of the arrogance, and greed of GM. Ford and Dodge were no different and offered the same shit, in those days, they didn’t want to spend the money on R&D until competition from imports forced them too...they didn’t give a shit about the customer, you only had 3 companies to buy a truck from.
NOTHING WORKS LIKE A CHEVY TRUCK:)
Somebody really had fun with the sound effects there.
5:54
"She's aerodynamic"
About as aerodynamic as a brick! Haha!!
Love these old commercials!
thank you for these uploads
I miss those days
I've got a 84 suburban with the 350 and 3 speed with a granny. 4x4, and I promise you, I will never be selling this truck.
381 322 Nice man!
You sold me I want C/K since forever
