Who remembers those 1970s Chevy truck TV ads ?

Okay....I hope that I am not imagining this, but...
As a kid, I thought I remembered seeing a Chevrolet Truck TV ad where they had a truck suspended from a crane. They dropped it to show how tough the chassis was. I know Ford had a similar ad, Dodge did too.
I've searched YouTube but cannot find it. Does anyone else remember this? Dad sold Chevrolets in the 70s and I remember him bringing home brochures and sales literature on the new cars. It was pretty cool as a kid. He used to get trucks as his personal vehicles. One was a 2 tone 1/2 ton Short/Wide with hubcaps.....and a 454 ! I remember him power braking it at stoplights! Good times!

I only remember changing the jingle from, "Nothing runs like a Chevy truck"' to, "Nothing rusts like a Chevy truck"!

The only ones I remember was Ford carrying a Chevy and dragging a Dodge up a stone mound to advertise the twin I-beam

I only remember the Dodge trucks falling from suspended cables, not Ford or Chev trucks.
That was in the mid '80s i believe...........

I'm 56, I remember. Who had the one where first it was a truck carrying a truck, then two trucks?

I believe that was Ford.
The Chevy commercial is a little fuzzy in my memory. I'm 53....I seem to recall the ad taking place on some sort of loading dock, maybe near water?

Just checking to make sure the tablet is working.
