Default OT: Chevy advertisement in Super Bowl

I do not care about the truck, but some of the graphics were excellent for a TEOTWAWKI game setting.

Enjoy

Wow, they did a nice job with that production, very convincing looking settings and I loved the various winks and nods they made.

That said, not totally related, but I'm sure there'd be a least a few Chevy trucks jury-rigged as technicals/gun trucks in any apocalyptic/post apocalyptic setting. There's likely some floating around right now as such in some Third World area.

I like the way the one guy had a box of Twinkies. In the movie Zombieland, one character spent the whole movie looking for a Twinkie, and here's the chevy guy with a whole box.

The Tv show Sons of Guns on the Discovery Channel features a family team of gun builders/buyers/restoration that have in fact built up there own "professional" technical truck with GPS, a machine gun mount on a swiveling pintle turret ring, additional mountings for other weapons, ramming bumpers, and a few other extras. It's also very well polished and spruced up, and looks a hell of a lot nicer than the typical rag tag technicals you'd find in places like Africa.

If it really was the PAW, then a Toyota Hi Lux (most common Technical platform) would have come by with MGs, shot up the chevy's and made off with the Twinkies.
