A/S Trailer in Chevy Truck TV ad

[vajeep]

Has any one seen the new Chevy truck commercial with the A/S being pulled?? It is a short spot, but you can see the WBCCI # on the front of the A/S. I wonder if we could look up the number and see who loaned their A/S for the TV spot...

There has been a couple members here have thier AS show up in comercials.
The company that did the VW comercial came looking here and was pointed to a AS dealer to use that camper. In the Photo Archives are some locations shots where another members AS was used.

Now did you catch King of the Hill last night. Last night was the show where they went to look at Luallen (the neice) trailer in the trailer park. They refference her trailer regularly and how it was blown over in a storm. Well it's a Airstream...looks like a 50's Sovereign.

Saw that! Considering the storm, externally, the AS was still in pretty good shape.

PAX TV runs a show called "Promised land", about a family travelling the US in an AS. They usually refer to it as a 25ft, but to me it looks just like a 31/32ft sovereign we saw this we.

Anyone know exactly what it is? Did it come with the two bunk beds or was the fourth a custom job?

I'll keep an eye for the chevy comm.

There was an Airstream on CSI Miami this last week. The victim in the trailer was siphoning gasoline, swallowing it and drinking lots of milk afterwards to kill the taste. He answered his cell phone and "poof!" from the static electricity. It took the whole show to determine it was not murder.

A national retailer with a fondness for owning the color red will have a holiday TV commercial with a red colored Airstream. Coming soon.

I saw a commercial for the '04 Ford F-150 with an Airstream attached to it. VW Touraeg also.

Everyone is trying to get in to the act!

Just saw the movie "Simone" on Starz last night. Two Airstreams in every shot of the movie studio lot, one being a shined classic from the 50's. Another shot on a highway where a newer Airstream gets rear ended.

We also bought the Sim's Superstar PC game. In the movie studio lot you find a rivited trailer very much looking like a Bambi.

I rented "Simone" from Netflix and watched it last night. Lots of Airstream sightings.
I was suprised to see in addition to the ones on the studio lot, one was rear ended on the freeway.

It was almost like someone had a lot of Airstreams sitting around and didn't know what to do with them all.

Cute little movie.

Any one seen the Arron Tippin video, "working mans PHD"?

They have an older unit 50'- 60's through the whole video.

Saw part of a movie about an Alaska dog race and someone in the movie was living full time in an A/S. Brought up all kinds of questions about how that would work at 40 below.

Hmmm, expect more from Target on Airstreams this coming Holiday season. Someone in the advertising department must have an infatuation. That department is hip and trendy, and into leading edge design. Airstream seems to be the in thing lately from GM, Volkswagen and others. I suspect the cutting edge International CCD series may have started that re-awareness of Airstream's timeless design. Ralph Lauren certainly helped it along.

A lot of placement in advertising and other media is dollar driven--pay to be there. In some cases such as the Apple Macintosh and now Airstream I think the design profession naturally prefers unique design and it just happens by choice.

The WBCCI # on the Airstream in the Chevy commercial is not listed in my 2003 WBCCI Membership Directory. It could be a new member, or they "555-1212ed" it.
