Consider My Christmas Wish List Officially STARTED


"You don't have to drive a truck to wear it...but considering that this is 1976 and the entire country is currently obsessed with CB radios, convoys, and Kris Kristofferson, chances are that you do."

  2. I realize this is a particularly sexist comment, given that this ad came out at the height of the ERA era, but ... that woman's ass is way too firm for a truck driver. At least, any truck driver I've met - male or female. Chris and Eli wrote a little ditty back in high school called "Truck Driving Women," and since it might be somewhat embarrassing to both of their careers for the lyrics to come to light, here they are:
    "We're truck driving women,
    Some guys think we are men,
    We're truck driving women,
    And we're oh so feminine.
    Feminine! Feminine!
    We're truck driving women,
    And we're oh so feminine!"

  3. I kind of like the shirt, too, but I'm a sucker for retro stuff. However, I'm sure it's a collector's item now and worth a bit of money.

  4. I want one too, please.
    And maybe some diet rite as well!

  6. Diet Rite and RC Cola were the best...I'm always rooting for the underdog.

  7. This ad perfectly summed up 70s sexiness...beautiful everyday women doing everyday things, and looking incredible doing it! One of my favorite blogs btw.
