you guys are all nuts Daisy was the best thing about that show!

Even though it cost me multiple sets of ball joints in my 78 Chevy truck from jumping it and more sets of tires than I can count, I still enjoy that corny show. Bad acting, primitive stunts and all. Makes me want to see if a Roadmaster Wagon can fly. The really heartwarming part is my 7 and 11 year old boys LOVE it. I'm going to have to set up the DVR to record it for them. Then again I remember all the crazy stuff I did. Maybe I should ban them from ever seeing it again.
I hated that show, but gotta admit that I was in my "Dammit, I'm tired of people making fun of Southerners!!" phase when it was originally airing. Hell, it took me until I was 35yrs old to understand that the "Andy Griffith Show" was the first time a Southern guy was shown as intelligent and competent.
OTOH, I'm seriously into loving the right corny one. My "guilty pleasure" is the A-Team, so "I feel your pain" (as another famous Southerner once said..). And Amy Allen never showed as much leg as Daisy Dukes did, so your fave cheesy show scores one more point than mine.
Back in 2005 at Crow Mnt., they had one of the original Warner Brothers cars on display. It made a few passes up the hill with the horn blowing. Kinda surreal. I kept expecting Bo and Luke to slide across the hood with Roscoe chasing them!
That is a sweet commercial. Thanks for finding and sharing.
I guess we are all getting older........

There's a Starsky & Hutch Torino in my shop on the lift now. Had a '69 Charger in there over the winter.

That's the best TV show I've seen since I don't know when! They need to make that into a series!

That did not help my want of a classic Charger.
I saw the ad a couple days ago. I rewound it and called in the whole family to watch as grinned like an idiot. I don't think any of them understood. Oh well, getting older.
A guy from one of the Corvair boards had a hand in building the 4 Chargers they promptly destroyed.

John Schneider looks better in his mid-50's than I do in my mid-40's...
Makes me wish I had '69 Charger money. I could probably swing an older Viper if I really tried...
why couldn't they use the original song in that ad? it just sounded wrong... unless that was Shooter singing, then i guess it's more ok.. but the "voiceover guy trying to talk like the Balladeer (Waylon)" at the end was just way wrong..
also, they seem to have pretty good 4G service in Hazzard these days..

And that right there is soooo depressing.
Just lie to me and tell me "No Chargers were harmed in the making of this commercial" and I would have been a happy camper. I still enjoy the old shows, but the movie was terrible.

They are about the same money.
