Chevrolet. Building a Better Way. Lyric Video
In 1972 Chevrolet launched a new multi-year advertising campaign "Chevrolet. Building a Better Way to See the USA." The campaign played off the 1950's "See the USA in your Chevrolet" Dinah Shore anthem. The campaign was launched to coincide with the run-up to the American Revolution Bicentennial in 1976.
See the U. S. A.
Have you seen the mountain range of cities that stretch beyond your eye?
Have you seen the cape where they got ships that can take you past the sky?
Its a patchwork quilt of cultures
On a land of vast extremes
A country built by dreamers that has past their wildest dreams
America
There’s so much to see
And Chevrolet
Building a better way
To see the U. S. A.
Have you seen the ingenuity?
Have you seen the different styles?
Seen the highways tied in pretty bows?
And the bridges stretch for miles?
Its a land that’s made from differences
But where all the edges touch
From the Mormons out in Utah
To the Pennsylvania Dutch
America
There’s so much to see
And Chevrolet
Building a better way
To see the U. S. A.
Its a land of roads well travelled
People travel’n every day
And if you’re go’n cross our country
Why not go by Chevrolet?
Chevrolet
Building a better way
Chevrolet
Building a better way
To see the U. S. A.

Hey Jeremy. Would you ever consider selling your GMC to me? I’m gonna graduate in a couple years and I think I’m gonna take my trade on the road :) let me know if you ever decide on it
Had no idea there was an extended version of this song - LOVE IT!
Too bad they stopped building a better way now they send it all to other countries.😢
what a real car looks like
Una joya, gracias. Saludos desde España.
The beginning of the malaise era cars from the 70's. If you were lucky, your car was built midweek. If not, you could find empty Coors cans in the doors.
Cadillac steering wheel and air vents ! Nice 🙋

Awesome drive!
Forever is over. Chevy is not what it used to be. But neither is Ford.
Why not?
I remember a version of this song that doesn’t mention Chevrolet. I remember hearing it on WMAQ radio Chicago in the 1970s.
The lyrics were “America, there’s so much to say. America, building a better way. And that’s the USA” . It was kinda like how they took the coke jingle and made a whole song out of it.
The chevelle part reminds me of “455 Rocket “ by Cathy Mattea. What kind of piece of “Sh…evelle “ is this?
Chevy trucks aren’t as good as they were back then. They are garbage now.
@@glennso47Peak GM was 1970. The 1971 big cars were crappy compared to their predecessors. Your best bet in ‘72 was the Chevelle in its last pre-Colonnade year.
This song will not go over well now especially when they mention “the Mormons in Utah “ and “the Pennsylvania Dutch”
The sound of VERY AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!!!
Where did you find that burnt orange carpet??
Its the original factory installed carpet.
Only 5 gallons of fuel were burned doing this video;)
E.M. (Pete) Estes was the General President back then
And John DeLorean was general manager of the Chevy division.
Is it easy to drive around neighborhoods in that? I'm looking at one but don't if it'll be for daily drive
Yes, very easy to drive.
@@jeremysanford2939 Okay cool I was just wondering cause I saw one on the market it looks so beautiful but didn't know if I could you know use it like a daily car cause it seemed big Haha
I bought one a few months ago can't believe how easy it is to drive like a big minivan
Chevy forever baby! 😊
I have always wanted a Chevy ever since I first saw the cast of "Bewitched" driving a different Chevy on each episode and after watching the game show "Split Second" when I was just a kid (on the latter show, they would give away Chevys on alternate weeks). Now I finally own a 2019 Trax LT. It's a great SUV!
Great video!
Was looking for this! Thank you - I love this in the background! So happy!
It’s like in Ben-Ten
Awesome video! :)
Totally appropriate Cadillac steering wheel since these GMCs used many Cadillac and Oldsmobile parts!
455 and 403 oldsmobile engines...
cool video,,, loving my 77 Kingsley
We have a 77 kinskey
Looks just like our kinsley bought it1985
Superb!!! Low mileage!
Too much!!! I have a 1977 26' Transmode Converted with rear door. Love this simple video and the music! Great!
What an amazing view from the drivers seat!
Great find. What a creampuff. More videos please.
So cool. My family had a Palm Beach model back in the 70s. So great to see someone enjoying this iconic Motorhome!
Hello - I would love to purchase this GMC if you are selling it - let me know and thanks!
Iwould love to have one of those!!! Definately get used!!
Please fix your steering box you can kill my kid.
Very nice GMC Motorhome and beautifully restored.
It's a fun drive, I drove it in the summer in 2017 down south up to Crescent City CA. which has this beautiful Redwood forest. Very hard to find a free spot at a campground though during this season.
Perfect music
First like and comment for the first time
Залипательное видео,получил массу удовольствия-красивейшая природа,главное такой панорамный вид из кабины-просто супер!Хорошего отдыха и счастливого пути!!!
GMC MOTORHOME пожалуй один из самых душевных автодомов,есть в нём что-то такое,чего лишены современные образцы,а жаль.
I enjoyed your choice in music. Thanks!
Nice but change the music. Elevator Music?
Awesome looking GMC Motorhome! I've only seen two in person. I love the music. It sounds familiar. What is it, and who performs it?
"The Masterpiece" by Henry Mancini
@@jeremysanford2939 I've heard music by Henry Mancini before, but this was a first for me. This sounded like the opening theme to *"Masterpiece Theatre".*
The music is from the 1975 Cadillac 8-track demonstration tape that is playing in the GMC stereo. The 1975 Cadillac tape is all Mancini.
@@jeremysanford2939 Ahhh! Okay. I know who Henry Mancini was. Awesome musician. 🙂
@@jasoncarpp7742 Used to be the opening music for the old 'Wide World of Sports' program.
Thanks for the ride. I've always been interested in what it's like to drive a GMC Motorhome. 🙂
Wow that is awesome. I'm awaiting delivery of my 73 painted desert Question: how smooth so they drive?
Smother than a Cadillac
@@markst.germain9286 yep, I just bought another one 78 eleganza and the ride is amazing
Looks like there is play in your steering. Great views thanks for sharing this video
