Man, if that doesn't tear at your heart a bit. So many ask why we keep these old cars...there's your answer right there...the memories. Thanks for posting that video...one of the best I've seen in a very long time.

That’s the best commercial I’ve ever seen. Makes me want to own a Chevy. Oh wait . . .

Thanks for posting that. I couldn’t figure out how to do it.

Default Chevy Commercial (EXCELLENT)

GREAT, yes I will admit made me fill up also, thought it sounded loud starting up & then caught them B/B emblems on the fenders… Great, very tastefully done (loved how the daughter was rattling the pots & pans while they were loading up the car) commercial, thats all we got are memories, makes me proud to be an American & I want to be a better Husband/Dad…

THANKS CHEVROLET…
Please, stay out of the Woke crowd!.
