I think they all do that. While in Mexico(2007), I spotted a new Ram Charger based on the 1/2 ton Ram truck. Can't get that here. It looked good too.

Re: Chevy's motto?
The 1972 motto was a play on the Dinah Shore one. Here is a video I made and the song from 1972 is used.

Yeah, and she'd be all photoshoped to look like a big fake Barbie Doll, and be sporting huge plastic boobs, and a bikini that you could not even see. When we see ladies in books, ads, and posters we aren't even looking at real women anymore... it's a shame.

I do not think I would have wanted to be the dirver of any of those trucks, but it sure makes for quality entertainment.
