“The first new truck of the ’80s.”
Here’s two Ford spots from the end of the Seventies with the Eighties knocking right on the door.
First a Ford Pickup truck commercial featuring a light bulb-smashing test. (Hint: the truck wins). After that, a commercial featuring the complete Ford truck line-up for 1980. Mediums and big rigs included! Both commercials aired in December of 1979. Truck on.
Previously on 70s Spots: Schick ’17 Barbers’ (1970) & ‘Demolition Derby’ (1971)
