I follow a handful of surfing and skateboarding accounts/brands on Instagram and - damn - those guys can't NOT put a bay-window in just about every pic they post. It's insane. Like daily. I've come really close to starting my own IG account, just to document the exploitation of VW buses in promotion if the "summer vibes" lifestyle in brands. It's ridiculous.
Then, a couple days ago, my wife's catalogue arrives from some outdoor clothing brand (I forget which). Another Bay Window, right on the cover.
It's funny, because a lot of the skateboard bloggers/whatever love to bitch about how fashion and a lot of other industries "lifestyle grab" by putting a skateboard in their model's hands to make them look "cool." And yet they can't stop themselves from "bus grabbing" like there's no tomorrow. |
We should demand they be covered in oil and grease for most of their life I find they want to use Busses

My bus was used in "Steal This movie" made back in 2000. The bus is lowered and was still running the 1600 back then.

TV commercial "23 and Me" for a home DNA test kit from 2017, the heavily freckled African-American woman in the orange shirt partakes in many fun activities. The 1970's bay window Type 2 has its front wheels turned into the street, and a second later turned towards the curb.
