BEST - COMMERCIAL - EVER .......... they took their time to explain the whole concept and put it into a not too short, but long enough chase-scene. Excellent!
@@cdr6977 that's because sadly in this day and age people don't like seeing that flag (because it is offensive now) I personally would kill to see it with the flag because it is good on General Lee, but there's even some proof that General Lee didn't have the rebel flag nor the name, before the writers decided that the duke boys should also be moonshine runners because with racing you need a number
A friend of mine actually has the car that jumped through the barn. That was actually all CGI, they jumped the car into a pile of cardboard boxes. The car has been sitting for the last couple years after he stopped driving it.
@@Wyatt-kj7ou It’s in Connecticut, he also has a wrecked Fast and Furious car I’m not sure which one, I don’t think he’s ready to sell any of them though. The charger is also not in great shape, all the stuff they did to make the car look good for the commercial is showing through, the last time I saw it was about three years ago and all the body filler was cracking and breaking off around the rear roof pillars and quarter panels. I can imagine it’s gotten worse from there.
Yes, my generation is stupid. But not all of us are stuck up, whiny cowards; some of us, like me, still believe in freedom of expression and hard work.
@@idkyou5416 Would make more sense do get a meet charger, id they waited a bit could used a Demon for this commercial. For the duke boys just wrong to limit them to the pavement
bringoutthelegos if they tune the engine, or bring in one of the new hellcat hemi engines, then it would ruin the spirit of the general lee, and there would also have to be either a new suspension tune, or new suspension in general, no pun intended
I know any modern day hatch back will beat it around a track. its got stinking leaf spring suspension and awful breaks. Yeah upgrade it and stiffin up the old body and it will be good, but then you destroy what the car is/was
Darien Falks yeah, you do got a point, cars that were made for steering and turning will probably do better, the charger is the only muscle car that turns well.
@@jullian8907 I disagree, Imo It's still a charger, big muscle car with a V8, just because It's a 4 door doesn't mean It's bad, that's why I said "stupid reasons"
I'd prefer the 1969 Dodge Charger besides than the Viper. I think this commercial would've been a whole lot better if they had a 1974 Dodge Charger and traded it for the 1969 Dodge Charger. I mean, that's just my opinion
Bronco Sinclair yep I agree I don't think a viper will be able to do the jumps the 69 charger was able to do ok some were reked at the end of some of the jumps but what a car and if you did a jump in the viper your heading to an earliey grave
First off, the General was a manual transmission, hands down “ they even reference the transmission type in the series multiple times” and second off, your comment would make more since if you knew how to type with correct grammar. Just saying
Honestly I see a viper being the only thing that could replace a 69 charger. Still that raw feel but everything is updated and upgraded to still be on top.
if l had an old charger like that l would never let it go. l would take the viper but there is no way in hell l would get rid of the charger. those things are so rare these days you never want to let one go if you can get hold of it.
We need these fellas to get back in the seat. Seems like everything else if the actors are still alive are getting reboots. Lets let these fellas shake the rust off and get on the big screen.
It was missing the most important part; The Flag. Also, the V8 in that thing, combined with the gearing on those old chargers would still be enough to beat even lots of more modern police cars. Especially if it had a 4 speed.
racefan32. The car has a front bumper guard on it that sti ks out 7 inches. We were at the filming of this small jump it was the car breaking the glass
What Challenger? If you are talking about the Viper I will give you the specs just to show you how wrong you are: Viper. 0 to 60 - 3.3 seconds. Top Speed - 177. Weight - 3400 lbs. Engine 640hp 8.4 L V10 (512 cubic in.) Charger. 0 to 60 - 6.0 seconds. Top Speed - 143. Weight - 3671 lbs. Engine 433hp. 6.9 L V8 (426 cubic in.) So, as you can see the Viper is better in all categories. Unless your talking about those cop cars which, yes, it would leave for dead. I don't hate the Charger, in fact I love Chargers especially the 69 but, the Viper is a lot better.
what challenger? there were no challengers in this ad. there was an older charger and a viper. l love old chargers but if you're going stock for stock that viper would eat the old charger for breakfast
if you tried jumping a viper it would fold like a pretzel. it's too low to the ground and it doesn't have soft and bouncy suspension which means every bump will break you in half.
1969 Charger R/T any day, just restomod the beauty. Oh, and the Duke's would never trade up the General Lee, and they would never paint over the Confederate flag.
they shouldve done a new challenger as it resembles the general lee more (ik general lee is a charger but the new challenger looks more like a old dodge than the new chargers)
Any new car would 10 times less durable, and 40 times less reliable. But I've got to say, this commercial has much better made car stunts than any new movie and lots of old school movies.
For what John Schneider sold his Bo’s version of The General Lee for at a Barrett Jackson auction, both Duke Boys should have drove away each in a Dodge Viper.
Who's the guy in the police car that Luke says hi to? It's not Roscoe, and it's not Enos, and I don't think it's Cletus. Can't find anyone named Lonnie on the imdb page. I never liked that they got rid of the General. Although I've always thought that other Dodge car, not the new Charger, but the other one, would make an excellent General for the next generation of Dukes. The Challenger.
Ok, this is just a commercial, we all know the Dukes or any fan of The Dukes of Hazzard wouldn't trade the General Lee for nothing, not even a car that is painted the exact same way. As for the flag, The General isn't the General without the confederate flag.
THE DUKE BOYS WOULD NEVER TRADE IN GENERAL
It's a commercial.
No, but the Autotrader actors would
they did
Zachary Bolin never
One episode they did
BEST - COMMERCIAL - EVER .......... they took their time to explain the whole concept and put it into a not too short, but long enough chase-scene. Excellent!
More like worst bc they would.never trade general lee
I would take the general Lee over any car in the world not sell it
Viper may be fast, but where are you gonna put the moonshine, and a viper cant make a jump!
Put the shine on your lap duh nah I’m kidding no where
The general has a way of out running anything.
As many Chargers they wrecked painted as The General, it can't either.
Did I just see a damn viper with an 01 on the side and no flag?
Bob,get the dynamite.
Dylan Stewart I like your
comment
the charger didnt have a flag either
Scrap it!
Bruh I’m just noticing. Fix it or burn it.
@@cdr6977 that's because sadly in this day and age people don't like seeing that flag (because it is offensive now) I personally would kill to see it with the flag because it is good on General Lee, but there's even some proof that General Lee didn't have the rebel flag nor the name, before the writers decided that the duke boys should also be moonshine runners because with racing you need a number
I see this as a complete work of fiction, a parody, the Dukes would never trade that car in
OMG its just a commercial! Get a Life! And in One episode they did!
@@dodgeramsport01because Boss hypnotized Luke into doing it
@kalel8736 still they did
In this ad,they probably stole the general lee again and also kept the viper too
@@dodgeramsport01yeah but against their will so your point on that remark is just gone

If you don't mind I'd like to know what state the cars in. Been wanting one as a project.

It's not the general lee without the flag on top

4 stage supercharger
Supe…
As in supercharger
Not dinner
Lets be honest thats a good way to make a car commercial.
wheres the flag?
Nowhere to be seen
It got canceled. If anyone saw it, they would immediately either have a snowflake nervous breakdown or become a racist.
That’s exactly why this car in this vid is not the general Lee the flag is the whole part of the car
@@LouMihniak-kk3xbBecause it is a symbol of racism, you fucking traitor.
@@LouMihniak-kk3xbit got canceled on April 9, 1865 when that girly man general lee surrendered like a little bitch.
Why would you trade in the general Lee? Can't they just tune the engine?
bringoutthelegos if they tune the engine, or bring in one of the new hellcat hemi engines, then it would ruin the spirit of the general lee, and there would also have to be either a new suspension tune, or new suspension in general, no pun intended
These old muscle cars go around a turn like a cargo ship
Darien Falks clearly you no nothing about the Dodge charger

Too bad they never got to do a part two. To hear John tell the story, they were going to go back after The General.
The General Lee needs to stay a 69
For at the very least a Dodge Challenger
@@flipbookproductions1407 charger general lee is a charger
@@jullian8907 Yeah but new charger is 4 door (which many people hate for some stupid reason) so they just choose Challenger
@@egg0534 true it really isn’t even a charger anymore. Now its just like every other 4 door sedan. Only difference is charger go speed

Say what you will about this ad, they still had the balls to make it.
Balls? They didn’t even put the flag on the roof.
@@jacksmack6956 Fair enough, but when was the last time you saw the General Lee in traditional media/advertising.
General still got it ❤

Gregory Traband If they wanted to make sense couldnt it have at least been a hellcat?
Or a new charger at least
Just ruined my childhood!
James Jackson Feel ya
How? I found that awesome!
Matthew Randone we find you stupid.
Brennie1001 righto then mate.
Yep
Don't like it at all. I don't care if it's 2082 the only General is the 69 charger.
Bronco Sinclair ...im wit yu on that 💯
Ill still settle for a 70 also
Bronco Sinclair for sure
Bronco Sinclair yep I agree I don't think a viper will be able to do the jumps the 69 charger was able to do ok some were reked at the end of some of the jumps but what a car and if you did a jump in the viper your heading to an earliey grave
Bronco Sinclair Damn Autotrader
The General wasn’t an automatic, this ad couldn’t even get the transmission right wtf
You know how hard it would be to find the exact 1969 Charger?
Well, maybe they should’ve just never made this fucking bullshit of an ad then !
Nightwolf 88 it was an automatic on the floor it was not a clutch for Speed car are in the ad was automatic on the column junk
First off, the General was a manual transmission, hands down “ they even reference the transmission type in the series multiple times” and second off, your comment would make more since if you knew how to type with correct grammar. Just saying
Its a crappy car app ad, what'd you excpect?
THE DUKE BOYS WOULD NEVER GET RID OF THE GOOD OL GENRAL!
Yeah and considering the general is Worth more than that viper
No 5th Gen Vipers are more expensive than even stock 69 Chargers very close in price either way
Dang, good times. But that was funny 😁
Don’t need a new car just engine swap and retune it
Exactly
I would much rather have a 69’ charger than a modern day one
Great car Great show Great actors
"THEM DUKES! THEM DUKES!"
there committing a crime getting rid of the general lee
Honestly I see a viper being the only thing that could replace a 69 charger. Still that raw feel but everything is updated and upgraded to still be on top.
Well actually every single challenger that’s out is faster the old chargers.Especially base hellcats and upwards.
Bruh that cop smile made me laugh
"this time make sure the doors open" correct me if I'm wrong but wasnt it their idea to weld them shut?
It was
It sure was
@Speed Buggy yeah but they said make sure the doors open, as if the general couldn’t open its doors before they welded them
It sure was, that was the trademark of the General Lee!
I think he was referring to the barn doors
I remember telling my Mom how bogus this commercial was. She says “It’s just the movie boys, they don’t know any better.”
Oh my gosh the general lee viper 😂
Thanks for the Laughs. Was this a successful ad?
Still better than the 2005 movie. And the 2007 one, too.
They S**ked! The Dukes wasn't Dopers or.. ignorant or eye candy. But "Wonder Woman."
Old car still got it.
Used Autotrader find my 2 Vehicles.
Great way to shop.
Found them out of State.
2016 Chrysler 200C AWD and 2019 Jeep Cherokee Overland 4x4.
NO NO NO don't trade that beautiful car for this piece of junk
Bo, Luke and the General Lee Charger will live forever!
No General Lee written on the roof line, and no Battle Flag on the roof. What a sad sign of the times.
Infact the origin rebel flag was more like the usa flag but the stars were in circles
@@ChargerSxt-bz2tl The good old Stars and Bars :-)
if l had an old charger like that l would never let it go. l would take the viper but there is no way in hell l would get rid of the charger. those things are so rare these days you never want to let one go if you can get hold of it.
How goods it survive them jum ps, and will the plastic hold up goin thru fences?
Who wants to drive some new shit when you have a charger.
And shooter singing in dads place? Nice touch.....
1:19 I never noticed that “Daisy’s Denim Depot” easter egg lmao
Does anyone know the name of the background music theme?
Theme from The Dukes of Hazzard
They need to remake this and have them buy whistlindiesel’s version of general lee lol 😂😂😂
We need these fellas to get back in the seat. Seems like everything else if the actors are still alive are getting reboots. Lets let these fellas shake the rust off and get on the big screen.
Duke boys would never trade the general in.
hellephant crate engine upgrade.
Car cars: check out 1:24 and tell me what's wrong.
Wow 😊😊
I like how the roof was purposely not shown at all until the end
Who agrees that they made the general Lee sad 😭
Nothing can beat the general lee
Trading in a Dodge Charger for that?? No way man.
They should make a movie About the older duke brothers it would be dope
Wilna Merritt Cousins not Brothers
What film it this dodge from? I'd like to watch it.
That was FAF somebody did a lot of thinking on that one
It was missing the most important part; The Flag. Also, the V8 in that thing, combined with the gearing on those old chargers would still be enough to beat even lots of more modern police cars. Especially if it had a 4 speed.
Ha 1:47 the glass breaks before the General hit it.
racefan32. The car has a front bumper guard on it that sti ks out 7 inches. We were at the filming of this small jump it was the car breaking the glass
The pushbar hit the glass first
that 69 charger could smoke that challenger anytime anywhere anyplace.

Warhawk Warrior Viper cant hold shine or make jumps, neither can a modern challenger or charger

what challenger? there were no challengers in this ad. there was an older charger and a viper. l love old chargers but if you're going stock for stock that viper would eat the old charger for breakfast
I love the general lee who don't like the general lee! Am I right
Jayden Mast I just don’t like the flag lol
Awesome orange "69 Dodge charger Dukes of Hazzard like the"77 black trans am smokey and the bandit both of them are fast cars.
General Lee is always good old is good new is bad
I agree with you
Can't do jump with new cars man
kyizer Evans
I say we can. Besides, their manufacturers will make more. (Excluding older and classic models)
New cars blow in pieces and shut down from a jump
Captain FALKEN you know what I'm talking about
if you tried jumping a viper it would fold like a pretzel. it's too low to the ground and it doesn't have soft and bouncy suspension which means every bump will break you in half.
Being most new cars nowadays are crossovers, i think they could handle the jump just fine. However, The airbags would definitely ruin your day.
Je suis français je vis à Paris et cette série américaine a bercé mon enfance vive Genera leeiiiiiihaaaaaa
greatest commercial ever
Hey if they don't want it I'll take it
Best 2 minutes and 13 seconds of my life yeeeee haaaaa
This commercial disgraced the general lee, trading it, the transmission.
i think that Rusty can get a lawsuit out of this situation
Los verdaderos Dukes de Hazard nunca intercambiarian el General Lee por ningún auto del mundo
Mmm so cheesy !! I would have had cooter put a hellcat engine in it Lol
NOPE! YoU Crossed the LINE here!
Standard police interceptor package has the 345 V8. The general would smoke it.
that car is sick I rode in it at the classicautomall car dealership its sick why did you sell it it was siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick?!
Hey Dukes! If you do not need the General anymore, I´d take it!
I saw this Comerical once before this video hmmm wonder why
This is the least duke’s of hazard thing I have ever scene
The duke boys would never wear seat belts…
Greatest. Commercial. EVER.

They should each drive the original general lee because they are smart enough to keep it
Should have traded it for the new charger.
I wish that these actors didn't do this commercial.
When they don’t let the car go over 3k RPMs
