The Best Advert Ever? I think So...

AutoTrader US has released this quite superb, in my view, advert featuring John Schneider and Tom Wopat...

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

This advert appeals to me on so many levels.

1. Huge fan of the original DofH.

2. It's great to see John and Tom (great friends in everyday life, as are all the original cast members) reunited like this.

3. '69 Dodge Charger. 'Nuff said there.

4. The ad uses TWO original DofH Chargers plus a few others.

5. It's nicely done. Just the right level of humour and no over-acting.

6. No CGI. All stunts are real-life. Si. <This is my name.

She's still around and far from a wheelchair.... Probably about your age, Stan.

Oh, one more thing. The very familiar ad soundtrack was sung by 'Shooter' Jennings. He's Waylon Jennings son. Si. <This is my name.

Nice. Actually making commercials people WANT to see. What a great idea.

2002 Range Rover Vogue 4.4 V8 Tangiers Orange

Bellini's n#3,

However, I could not help noticing the purposely hidden car's name and flag on the roof (but on one shot hey hey, see below)

The decorations were in fact digitally deleted or hidden by props such as pieces of glass etc.

Now, where do I order "01" stickers for my Rangie's front doors?
