“You think you hate it now, just wait till you drive it” if that ain’t the best sales pitch, I don’t know what is LOL

[Friarjohn]

“I’m not your ordinary everyday fool.”

[jamesehamilton]

The new car dieseling in the driveway for a minute straight after he shuts it off is such a brilliant subtle touch.

[austinalsobrook]

Lesson here - always be skeptical of a car dealership that has a car crusher out back

[coltonlandi]

"If you think you hate it now, wait until you drive it!"

[johndardi]

I love it when the guy says “I don’t know sir” then walks away. 😂

[garyking]

I like how he still tried to open the door after the car was flattened.
He hadn’t even noticed.
Total Homer Simpson moment

[theshapeexists]

How nonchalantly he walks to his obviously flattened car and tries to open the door, is what made Chevys physical comedy the best ever. Rolling on the floor dying everytime I see it

[jasonembree]

I like that there is a garbage bag for the airbag. 🤣

[johnnyCham]

I like how glade made the airbags for them.

[pyrpleflower]

“I’m Not Your Ordinary Everyday Fool”
Later he shows everyone he is.
😆🤣

[dannyzuehlsdorf]

I wouldn't mind taking Beverly Deangelo for a little spin around the block

[waynemacfarland]

"They flattened our old car like a pancake." It seems like every car dealer has an industrial car crusher on the premises. How else are they gonna con people into buying the wrong car?

[UmmYeahOk]

“That’s a Vista Cruiser! You could literally cruise the vistas.”

[Foxtucky]

You didn't order the metallic pea?...hahaha

[steveb]

I can never forgive National Lampoon for destroying a ‘72 Vista Cruiser.

[jeremysmith]

Davenport is the best. “I don’t know, sir.”

[quincee]

Happy 40th anniversary to this timeless comedy!!

[jimschreiner]

"You think you hate it now, wait till you drive it" LMAO😂
Love that movie.

[michaelpound]

absolute comedy gem. the acting is superb, with Chase and Levy nailing the situation. The use of Davenport as the fall guy perfects the routine. This scene sets up one of the most popular comedies of all time.
