Back in 1985 you could buy a Chevrolet Truck with an outdoorsman package.
What came with the truck was a Winchester model XTR 1894 rifle 30-30 with scope,a gun rack and everything else you see in the bottom of the picture.
Could you imagine if they tried to do this today..

Only back in the good "O" days!! I bought a 85 half ton 4x4 pickup new and never knew about that package. Mine was Midnight Blue with dual tanks and 4 spd. Wish I still had that truck...

I noticed in the commercial they don't seem to advertise the rifle too much. Just a brief showing of it.

In case someone has the truck and still needs the gun.

Current bid price is at $500 with 4 days to go on the auction.

85 Chevy...
 
I bought our 85 GMC Sierra brand new in October 1984...never heard of this option.

The gun case in the photo is a Gun Guard...very well made product.

1972-73 in high school we all had shotguns or rifles in our cars...but we were just going hunting. Drove to school everyday with a gun in the back of my father's Chevy wagon...today they would have a SWAT team, helicopters and all the major news outlets in the parking lot :rolleyes2:

How times have changed :confused2:

Back in the day when I was at Chanute AFB, I drove a 72' Chevy pickup with an Easy Rider gun rake at the back window. In the gun rake was a inert LAWS tube just for shits and grins. Went thru the gate many, many times before one of the SPs noticed ... he requested I remove it before someone had a shit fit over it ...

Traverse City is my hometown and I still live there, home of Hagerty Insurance.

This bank operated the gun program for opening an account/CD for a number of years.
They always had a large selection of guns on hand to select from. I never got in the program, but have several friends who obtained guns that way. They did have a Federal Firearms License FFL, and it was a popular program.

Considering this occurred in a state that closed school for the opening of deer season, what would you expect. 😂

Love Traverse City, Michigan. My brother and I have fond memories of vacationing there when we were kids.

You probably wouldn’t recognize it today. We’ve been overrun by retirees and those trying to escape the major cities to work from home. The second smallest county in Michigan, part of Traverse City, has the second highest per capita income in the state.

Our tiny airport now has direct flights to 17 major destination cities in the US.

We’ve been found. 😏

No doubt! I have been going to TC for 50+ years and going “up north” feels the same as every city within 10 minutes of me. Progress I suppose. Just have to go farther North!!
