If Henry Ford is alive he might have a reason to give this a thumbs down, but the other negative votes baffle me. I did watch Dinah Shore from her TV audience several times. She was very nice and talented. I also once owned a 1953 Chevrolet convertible like the last car seen in this video. Beautiful car.

I love Dinah Shore. I bought my first (ever) new car last year, a 2011 Chevy Aveo. This commercial was shot over 50 years ago, and it's still effective advertising, it played a part in my decision to buy my new Chevy, which I couldn't be happier with.

I grew up hearing this song. Combining the central mythologies of the USA: Freedom, the open land, adventure, the automobile. Of course, the reality is that forced automobile dependency means people spend a lot more time stuck in suburban sprawl traffic than they do seeing the Rockies.

America was the greatest country then and is even greater now, the only reason it doesn't feel that way is because the media found out that fear sells best, but don't worry in a few years some small minded fool will watch a SpaceX landing and think "When America still worked."

@tocororo 2 жыл бұрын

@ Jose Parcenary. Isn't that the whole point of the commercial? To sell that particular car? 🤔. Of course you could see the U.S.A. in any other car or, by following your "logic", even on horseback or by foot. The reason it works is because it's a catchy, happy, upbeat song which appeals to the customer's desire of adventure by seeing the whole country. It also appeals to patriotism, particularly coming out of WWII and in the midst the Cold War. It makes the customer feel good and proud of being an American and it associates the car a with it. That's why it was a hit and you're still watching it 70 years later (even if to just make a smart ass remark about it). 😌

American pie - drove my chevy to the levy... Mclean thinks of Chevy, mom .apple pie and an era that believed in America. Bought into the idea that America was the greatest. Then he goes on to use the metaphor for Do you believe in the Book of Love... '58 song from the Monotones. Represents faith in the 50s where America moved from faith & then believed music would save your soul. 10 years we've been on our own.... (Decade of the 60s).

Actually, the Cruze is a Korean engineered car, as is the Sonic. Those cars are built in the U.S., but were engineered by GM Korea. General Motor's global plan pretty much follows this: midsized cars engineered in Europe, small cars in Korea, large cars in Australia, and trucks in America.

The Aveo was actually Daewoo-based. Earlier, the 1989-2001 Geo/Chevy Metro and Tracker, and the 1985-88 Chevy Sprint were Suzuki products, and the 1985-88 Chevy Nova/1989-2001 Geo/Chevy Prizm is a rebadged Toyota Corolla. The 1989-93 Geo Spectrum and Storm, and the 1975-81 Chevy LUV pickup were Isuzu products. Ford had the 1987-93 Festiva and the 1994-97 Aspire, which were made by Kia. Small US-built Chevys, such as the Vega, Chevette, Cavalier, Cobalt, Cruze, and Sonic, are all US-designed.

the 1960's around the time the union strikes were hitting the TV news just about every month. more money over an over more money they wanted demanded and got. Jobs fled, management found new labor pools and currency exchange rates to the customers favor. we can have jobs or bargains in this country not both. the "duty dollars" might need to be changed.

" it played a part in my decision to buy my new Chevy" Scary that the older people get the more gullible they become. Like buying a Chevy has anything to do with the reality she was singing about. It's called NLP. It works VERY well on old people. Buy a Chevy, go back to the old America you remember as a youth. Be young again, feel safe in the familiar place you were most happy. And maybe, just maybe, get some of the stuff she was singing about. Pure BS.
