I can almost gurantee that didn't happen and nobody in japan ever heard of forsythe, georgia....this is my 1st time hearing of it and I'm an american 😂
Something tells me the dealership was filming normal commercials that day and Dusty wandered onto the lot and they just handed him a hot mic and let him have at it. 😆😆😆
True. Also the commercial was supposed to be a full 60 second spot, but right after where they made the cut at :30, Kevin Sullivan's Ahmee uh Dahkness stormed onto the lot and did a lynching. The dealership felt that hard of a Southern style wouldn't fly north of Jacksonville.
@Chris Parker When you put a high car payment on someone. That’s hard times daddy. When you tell someone they have to pay more for air conditioning and FM radio. That’s hard times. Just like when Rick flair broke Dusty’s ankle and put hard times on America.
I remember talking to somebody on the phone about Brock Lesnar's time in UFC. Then I got all these UFC recommendations. I don't watch or follow MMA at all. They're listening to everything we say.
You wanna talk about "hard times"? After seeing this commercial, I went to the dealership to get this $99 deal. The car I got originally came with seat belts. Then, after I finished paying off the car, they said I had been disqualified from the promotion, and as part of what they called "a Dusty finish," the belts went back to the dealership.
Funny you mention that. Random but overlooked thought = Ric Flair doesn't like Black Folks, butttttttttttttttttt "he tanned, talked loudly, was chucking and jiving, made LOUD noises and danced in the ring -For someone who doesn't like people of color and labeled Teddy Long the n word constantly = He SURE ACTED LIKE THE PEOPLE, HE DESPISED
@@cobrakainevereverdies6940 it honestly kinda reminds me of the fact that like, so many stereotypes against black people really also seem to “apply” to southern people Especially the food stereotypes lol
@@obeseperson - I can understand that. But Dusty was, who he was. But Prick Flair actually thought he was a somebody, mocking certain people.

Only person who indirectly called him out is R-Truth and him saying "John Cena is his childhood hero" and Truth mocked him - but hardly anyone caught on.
The notion that a Japanese cab driver would travel all the way to Georgia to purchase an American made vehicle and pay to have it shipped back to Japan so he can use it for his cab driving job is so fucking amazing it HAS to be true!
you believe any story a coked up Ex WWF wresltler has to say while in a commercial that hes being paid for. You sound like a reasonable and intelligent fellow
this is so sad to watch because after Cody's promo, I know that these were really hard times for Dusty and his family 😥 what a legend! thankfully all worked out in the end!
Dusty’s “hard times” rap was fantastic …drove past a roadside stand named the same in March 2017 on way back to Philly from spring training…we didn’t stop and I regret it to this day
I know I'm 12 years late to this video, but anyone else watching spend an inordinate amount of time in school detention after giving the bionic elbow to his classmates over and over again?
NOBODY on the Face of This Green Earth would've thought to put that the way that Dusty Rhodes did! Incidentally, speaking of Mount Olympus no mention of Mr. Harley Race?😂😏🎤🌏🍅🐖🍔🍗🥩🍺🤼♂️B.W.
I live near this former dealership. Dusty was friends with the owner. I remember these commercials on local TV in the 80’s. Later on in the 90’s the sons of the owner worked for a Dodge dealer in nearby Warner Robins, GA and I believe Dusty did a couple of TV ads for them too.
@@Crusader7077 I think you’re right! My bad on that one. I was referring to Cody’s “car commercial” promo, which I’d heard him reference in interviews prior to, but my timeline was wrong. Looks like that came later in life for the ol’ “Son of a Plumber.”
Damn, Dusty Was a Beast on that mic! I love watching late 90s wcw garbage shows like “Pro”, or whatever B and C shows he was commentary on, just to hear him!
"I said hay Japanese cab driver" "he said what Dream?" I 100% believe this happened
I also believe this happened 😂
Yes it is common knowledge that the most popular taxi cab in Japan in the mid-to-late 1980’s was the Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera

Dusty was a master at talkin jive. Can’t do nothing but love it.
It’s sad that he had to do these commercials so he could keep his car and feed his family. He really went through hard times baby 😢
Big Dust was made to talk into a microphone, he was a natural.
I didn’t think I would ever see a Dusty Rhodes talking about Tom Stimus cars again in my lifetime. Thank you!
Crazy how you never know the stories of what people went through for decades.
Hard times
Dusty channeling the Wolfman Jack
The only reason I watched Wrestling in those days was to see the weekly Dusty Rhodes interview.
No one got larger than life like "The Dream" did.
And this video popped in right after Cody Rhodes told the story to Paul Heyman on last smack down. How YT recommendations work is unbelievable.

You could hear the people working on the commercial just LOSING IT!!!!

Take it to the pay window baby
Thought times don't last... Thought people do... RIP American dream

@bassplayer2773 how u know english not his first language ? YOURE ASSUMING HIS NATIONALITY DOOD THATS NOT COOL
R.I.P legend
Thought this was gonna be a promo for his WWF gig. Car dealer, part of the common man; the American dream.
Fifties car dealers had lot s of wrestling going on ; I'd see it in Edmonton and Tulsa!! as a kid.
Kinda sounds like Fred Sanford here.
My brother was friends with a Dusty Rhoads in Covington. He had brothers named Sandy and Bumpy and a couple others I believe.
you forgot uncle Muddy
When you go to the pay windaw to write the check, get the taytalllllllllll, you know you got youself a good deal!
“Rut is it honorable dweem?”
At least the nickey Chevrolet comersials where classices
He was soo good at Advertising if I had money I would've bought one of his cars today !
Cool
$99 over factory cost 🤦♂️ why can’t they just give us the actual fucking price of the car
Can someone translate this to English?
😆
he did this commercial just to keep his car.. "when hard times wasn't just a promo..."
Wrong commercial. I don't think people listened when he said "the year was "2000" ". This was back in the 80s

Best Dusty Commercial of all time!
That's how you know the story is made up. IRL, he woulda said, "hey, daddeh... "
Japanese cabdriver would have been a solid 80s jobber name
The Japanese cab driver is more coherent than Dusty.,

No, this car commercial is from 1987. Cody's promo was about Dusty doing car commercials when they went broke in 2000.
@@chrisdalby yeah, in 1987 Dusty was booking JCP and rolling in money. what was the 2000 car story though?

Dusty was The Man. It was fun watchung him jive talk every saturday on TBS.
I question everything about this.

I remember him doing car ads in Columbus, GA as well, around the same time.
Funny, I happen to know a guy named Dusty Rhodes...............that ain't him.
the good ole days of "wrasling" and car buying.....there just isn't many car salesman like this anymore
I almost thought that this was one of Dusty's WWF pre-debut vignettes until I read 1987 on the title.
Tom Stimus owned dealerships in Florida. Lost them due to financial mismagement. Tom was an over the top personality much like Dusty.
Tom Stimus and Allied discount tires were the best commercials on tv back in the day
There’s a little sadness to this story - Dusty was broke at the time, and started filming car commercials around the state to make some income.
This was actually in 1987 while Dusty was wrestling and booking for Jim Crockett Promotions.
And Benny thought he knew everything 😂
@@bbrcummins1984 Who is Benny?
@@Crusader7077 I think you’re right! My bad on that one.

When you're feeling hard times, buy your used car at a great price from Tom Stimus, baby!
I sss'thaidthss "Hey Japaneeethzz cab dwiberth!"
"he said 'what is it Dream?'" lol
That was the best part. 😁
So was this the commercial Cody referred to about "so he can keep the car"?
That’s what a typical 40 year old looked like in the 80’s. Let that sink in…
They don't make them like this anymore...
I'd pay $99 for as car sold by Dusty Rhodes.
He was good on a speedball, not such a great car salesman tho...
Damn, Dusty Was a Beast on that mic! I love watching late 90s wcw garbage shows like “Pro”, or whatever B and C shows he was commentary on, just to hear him!

You can beat his prices but you can’t beat his meat
Call the number ask for Dusty
omg wtf was that i didnt' understand anything he said

"I maybe dusty but im never dirty"
