  • Ford Motor Company and MASS PRODUCTION is what made this country great, but I'm afraid we have lost this to the foreign countries THANKS TO THE UNIONS!!!! Thank you UAW & AFL/CIO for breaking this country.

  • love this song..thank god for henry ford..

  • i'm 34 and i'm in the 8th grade too!

  • Some body stop that bird........Some body get me a beebee gun.

  • Thank you much, this has been added to our playlists here, and on facebook, lol, love it...

  • The day the Gaguzzler from Detroit goes out of favor....

    That is the day...

    The day when civilization dies !!

  • well HillbillyProduction, you just keep that inspiration, because Jerry is a fond, favorite memory to many of us! :) I love this video & wish you the best as an 8th grade bluegrasser

  • im an 8th grader and i know who jerry reed is, hes one of my favorite singers, thank you very much, and im in a bluegrass band, you dont see many 8th graders in a bluegrass band either , except me

  • great song but vids that try to match the lyrics REALLY SUCK. they distract rather than ade.

  • all old car are great!!! i am at my uncles and unties house on woodword seeing the dremcruse!!!!!!! :)

  • Jerry Reed, one of the best! Great song, and great job putting together the video!

  • Wait a minute. Since when does an eighth grader have any idea who Jerry Reed is/was? Well, there may be hope for us all, yet. Good job "son".

  • @graveljaw When I was that age, I was into Benny Goodman, jimmy durante, and that kind of music........

  • @zepherford Yea, back when they were considered "current", sure :P

  • @graveljaw

    I initially had the same reaction, then remembered that when I was in grade 8, which was, yikes, 18 years ago, I knew Jerry Reed quite well. I think junior high creates an affinity for ridiculous, yet hilarious, songs.

    Way to go on the video, I got a good kick out this and shared with everyone I know.

  • @graveljaw He obviously had an excellent upbringing.

  • @graveljaw i'm an 8th grader :D

  • To rootbeerman.. Sadly Jerry past away

  • you can find informations at findagrave

  • Love this tune! (R.I.P. Jerry.)

    I guess "Lord Mr. Benz" didn't have the same ring to it?

    Even tho ol' Karl Benz (with some help from his daughter Mercedes..) built & sold the first true cars.

    Oh yes, & Mrs. Benz was the first car theif!!

  • @McAteerPaul

    Thanks to Karl Otto

  • 11 veiws drive chevys

  • OUTSTANDING graphics in this video! Thank you for the extra work to put that together!

    A local radio station DJ in Phoenix put out one called CHEAPER CRUDE or NO MORE FOOD, in response to the 1973 oil embargo. His name Bobby Butler.

  • @ftenorio1 NO NO NO the people of the USA are not destroying this country, it is the stupid people who believe in a electric car that do not understand where the electricity comes from, do you know that when you have to recharge your batteries, that ,that electricty come from a coal plant that makes electricity.

  • Jerry Reed was a pure genious!! greatly missed

  • Comment removed

  • lol.... FORD= found on road dead...... crappy cars, its still true to this day, well said Mr. Jerry Reed...

  • according to what the news told me today, you should get a electric car and get 40 miles, with out a recharge. but you know what th electric car has not told people is where that electricy comes from. it comes from a plant that is burning coal

  • @rosemarie443 not always, look at argentinos solar tower plant or the southern united states effort to harness the las vegas sun to power a percentage of the city, than theres us up north with thousands of giant wind turbine farms....

  • @Taud well you see sir, this wind, solar power is all smoke and mirrors. if the USA was really interested in other power they would turn to water. u do know that the electricy that powers the cars comes from coal,

  • @rosemarie443 lol of course it has nothing to do with the immense start up costs that have to do with wind and solar set up, trust me im into engineering, i rly dont care what conspiracy u think the USA is into, the wind farms here in canada work fine, i dont know what the hell u talking about "smoke and mirrors" argentinas solar tower works better than any project on earth, so if you americans arent doing so well with it doesnt mean its fake, it just means u suck at it

  • @Taud Hey did i say anything about a conspiracy. i don't believe so. well I you are from Canada then you would not know about "smoke and mirrors" it is a joke about our government, it says that they are trying to pull things over our eyes. well sir that is your opinion and you are free to state so. but i still think that wind is a foolish idea, but then they thought that the automobile was a foolish idea when it started, and see how that worked out. you could do better if you didn't get so upset

  • @Taud well sir i don't think that the USA is into any kind of "conspiracy" i just think that they are wrong about doing wind and solar set ups. and like usual you are from Canada. i get a lot olf post from Canada, what i want to know is why you are so worried about the USA. your governing comes from Engalnd not the US A now if you want to pay more for you electricy that is you problem and right, but i don't think that you should tell the USA what to do.

  • Hee hee hee! Loved this song the moment I heard it. And I'm no country music lover either.

  • a very good song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!MICHI­GAN is one of the very best stae of all the 50 states. # 2 stae is maryland #3 state is South carolina. Then the # 4th state is North Carolina.

  • @ossgood1 sorry son, but michigan is #2, ohio is #1

  • and not only is the ethanol a scam so is the electric car, do you know where they get the electricty that runs that car, it comes from an company that is powered by coal

  • this about my grait garit gandpa ford

  • ha

    nice!!

  • Comment removed

  • If they had put as much time, effort and money into the eletric engine or the steam engine (yes they were in car), we wouldn't have these outragous gas prices. Stupid internal combustion engines. Mr Ford..... electric engines are the way to go. Or as my daughter said, how about a car that runs on non recyleable garbage.

  • @witchy1der there is just one problem with electric card where does the electricy come from when you plug the battery in to be recharged. it come from a electrial plant that burns gas or coal? so where are we doing better.

  • @rosemarie443 , The ZENN company is comings out with technology that the is limited charging, as the car drives it charge itself. But I think the technology is there for other types of engines, I mean someone is going to get upset enough that the do something. I think processing unsed grain, wheat or corn is even better then electricity, but I guess we will see. Also I thought most power plants are either coal (which we are trying to get rid of in Canada) or Nuclear?

  • @witchy1der well sir that is fine , but i just like the song, and i wish they would write one like about the cell phone. like i asked where does the electricty come from, a coal plant so you see when you plug that battery in you are still using fossel fuel. and now all of a sudden the states have decided that if you drive a electric car then you have to pay so much per mile, because you are not paying gas tax. now tell me how can the little guy win

  • deasle 1.65 lol how long ago was that??????

  • well according to Obama today we are going to go to 7 dollars a gallon for gas in a little while because he will not sign anything that has to do with drilling. he thinks that the wind, and ethonal will solve eveything, but he didn't tell you that it costs more to make ethonal than it does to make gas out of oil no tell me where is all the democart raving and carrying on there did it a lot when gas got to almost 3 dollars a gallon when Bush was in office, but do you see them saying anything

  • @rosemarie443 ethanol aint expensive if u knew what it was ud kno that ppl been usin ethanol in big block carburetor V8s an sum big straight 6s 4 yrs

  • @JohnDeereBoy06 hey young man you got to do better than that i don't get the abber. well from what i can get from your post you don't think that ethanol will cost more, now what i want you to do is tell the people who make it that. they keep telling us that it costs more to make ethanol than it does just plain gas. hell son, a loong time ago a car would run on moonshine. but the MFG fixed that. now we have to have a special motor that will burn ethanol. they don't even have a adaptor kit.

  • @rosemarie443 moon shine aint expensive btw ethanol is moon shine btw thnx 4 repostin what i said 4 the less educated can understand it

  • @JohnDeereBoy06 yes ethanol is moon shine, but at the last part of making it they add a ingrediant that makes it not good to drink. did you know that everybody that works in a ethanol plant get examined twice a day to see if they are drinking any of the shine. and if you put the expense of shine against gas yes it costs a lot more

  • @rosemarie443 rite all the processes that it goes through now is what makes it so dam expensive an with all the "research" that went in to the process of "makin" the e85 corn breed(of course u knew this) but as i said b4 "ppl been usin ethanol in big block carburetor V8s an sum big straight 6s 4 yrs" because these motors r NOt computerized as the EFI motors of 2day plus EFI motors are not capable of burnin normal shine w/o cloggin the dam injectors because of its sugar

  • @JohnDeereBoy06 what i want the car companies to do is to go back to the engine that would run on anything. you see what the oil companies have done to us. then it might help (probably not) but they should make one type of gasoline. you can buy additives if you want to do so.there are a lot of things that the government could do to make gas cheaper if they WANTED to. that is the problem, Obama said when he was a senator, that $7.00 a gallon for gas was not out of line, so there you have it.

  • @rosemarie443 thatll never happen because theres sum much money in oil thats y alt based cars r ffew an far between(compared 2 the gas/diesel cars)

  • @JohnDeereBoy06 hey son are you talking english or are you alien. well if they would let the USA drill for oil we have enough to last for a 100 years and by that time they should have something to take its place. OK mayibe not

  • Comment removed

  • @rosemarie443 nice i gotta respect that im buildin a 71 mach1 mustang jus need a 71 302 an a right read quarter panel but it runs w/the 351 i got rite now

  • @JohnDeereBoy06 well if i can siffer what you said i am glad that you got the car to run. you take care

  • @rosemarie443 Ethanol is the biggest scam ever devised. A. You get less mileage and less power. B. You have to plant cultivate grow harvest and process it, not to mention transport it in various forms from one place to another. After doing the math I came up with 12 fluid ounces of gas wasted per gallon of ethanol. SO next time you fill up pour the first 12 ounces of gas into a beer can from every gallon and pour that on the ground. This will save you the trouble of dealing with the rest of it.

  • @Satchmoeddie yes sir i agree with you. but can you convince the government that ethanol is a scam. not only that it costs more to make. now one thing that i want sombody to tell me is this what are we going to do without plastic. i have never been in favor of ethanol. or wind power. or electric motors. but then you tell the government not me about it

  • 11 people doesnt have fords.

  • love this song, it was written a long time ago but it is still the truth.

  • wish somebody should write a song like this about the cell phones. who ever invented them should be sent to jail, if they are not talking on them and driving, they are talking on them in the grocery store. then if that is not enough everybody thinks that they have to text the other person who is in the same room with them, what ever happened to just talking to each other, you can always use the telephone. it still works

  • Very clever bit to a good song by legendary picker Jerry Reed. Well done. :)

  • good ole jerry reed best guitar player there ever was.

  • At the 7 sec mark gas is $1.65 a gallon on the good old days 2007 a mere 4 yrs ago!!!

  • @DJW2097 A couple of years before that, 1:40 was the average! I remember it never seemed to change for the first 20 years of my life, and then in 2004...BOOM.

  • Great song and great Video to go with it....WTG

  • Chevy is the best

  • love it thanks

  • ford was't the 1st to invent the automobile,but his company was the 1st to do it in america......

  • @popsjets1969 Not true, the Duryea, Winton and Oldsmobile (Just 3 examples) all predated the Ford; Ford's "Model T" (1909-27) however was the first car mass-built on a fully moving assembly line (1915) and thus became the first car that anyone could afford, giving Ford the early lead in the business

  • @777rafale, @rootbeerman77, how on earth did you two get to posting comments in Japanese - for a video about an American country singer singing about the crappiness and faults of the automobile world?

  • God bless the inventors that change the world. Growing up in America with a family car that was a V-8 and no seat belts - those were some good family trips... (I hate gasing up my Suburban these days!) Leave it to someone like Jerry Reed and the American Country music genre to write a song about it.

  • @TTTrixie i know what you mean about the suburban..i have a 1980 suburban that gets like 9mpg lol

  • Timeless Song. hard to beleive this was originally recorded in the early 1970's

My daddy and me drove by it several weeks, then on the day he decided he'd buy it for me, we went back and it was gone! Thanks again for this sad but golden memory!

    I heard even with GPS's that you can still get lost on a clover leaf ( this just happen to a friend who had a 2nd gen tomTom)

  • @ Silverfox I recently saw a car turn off the road...directly onto the railroad tracks.  I'll bet anything they were tourists using GPS. Maybe they should try watching the road instead. LOL

  • The more things change the more they stay the same.

  • I hope not!
