My mother's boyfriend had one of these. I think it was a '72 and it was lemon-yellow. I was 9 and we drove all the way from Springfield, MA to Philly for the bicentennial celebration in July of '76.

@alexander_the_car_salamander: You should look for one. Just don't look in New England. Sadly, the Scout didn't seem to survive well in rusty environments. #internationalharvester

@Potatosw✭tter: Well, I suppose maybe it was time to remodel. They should really get some of those insulated curtains though..looks like it's going to be a bit drafty in there this winter. #detroit

Wow, this brings back memories. Most of them were already off New England roads back in the 80's and were relegated to "yard trucks." Most of them now are out decaying in farmers' fields.

Is this a truck ad, or an ad for the Peace Corps? #chrysler

@kingofthering gets off on witholding.: Yeah...you know it's a bad sign when they tell you it's got tranny and brake problems in the actual commercial. #chrysler

Remind me to be as far away from her as possible when she takes her practical test. #baddrivers

"Wooohoooo...we finally accomplished our five year mission to push the dump truck out the window!!!!"

BusinessWeek can bite my shiny metal ass.

Wait, I just thought of a way they could have made it even tackier:

@alexander_the_car_salamander: You betcha! And even then, I'd still have to wear dark glasses so I wouldn't be recognized. #tundra

Even a built in beer-tap and 42" TV can't make up for the silliness and embarrassment of driving a vehicle with belt-buckle door handles. #tundra

@MushyHeirloom: True. How about an ice encrusted spare tire?

@MushyHeirloom: And for late winter, perhaps the remains of the Xmas tree that never quite made it to the dump. #chevroletimpala

@lilwillie: Yep, da Jimmer was da star alright. The fart scene is a classic for the ages, to be sure.

@MushyHeirloom: Dunno..could be one of dem dere late winters in the UP. It hasn't been the same since da Jimmer's chevy shook a shet. #chevroletimpala

@MushyHeirloom: Dont' forget tire chains, bag of tube sand, coffee can full of salt..am I forgetting anything else? #chevroletimpala

@stephdumas: Don'tcha know it! #chevroletimpala

@87CapriceEstate: Ya can't make this stuff up! #chevroletimpala
