1971 Chrysler-Plymouth Cricket Commercial

Cool, I remember that one! Hey, does anyone have the 70's Arrow commercial with the "me and my arrow" song? Was it Plymouth that made that arrow? Bob

There was actually a Cricket on eBay not too long ago that may be the only example left in the U.S. that escaped the dreaded tin worm. I remember this commercial very well. Thanks for posting it!

Chrysler may have rebadged a lot of Mitsubishis in their time, but the Avenger/Cricket had NOTHING to do with Mitsubishi (although in New Zealand the Avenger and certain Mitsubishis of the time did share the same assembly production line)...

always liked these , they were kinda rare , and they really sucked bad , but cool all the same

Despite common prejudice, this car was widely successful-outside the US..it out sold many other cars for over 10 years overseas. Not a bad car. It just got a bad rap. I think the chrysler execs wanted to sell the bigger ones to the gas guzzling crowd and this was their way of competing with the subcompacts..sales figures are at about 40,000 in the u.s..the Metro is not looking so bad to many who once called it a p.o.s. small cars- good on gas

this car in the usa , was a giant piece of crap , sorry it was...... most were automatics..and they sold like 9 of them , they were gone by the time i was 15

TO ElectroGhost10 , i totaly agree with u, todays cars has a borring disign, in the 70s was it mutch beter

Older compact cars were still stylish compared with the garbage designs of today; Smart Car comes to mind.

they were the Hillman/Chrysler?talbot Avenger in Europe and were classed as an average sized family car, but were seen as being tiny in the US cause they liked their cars big!

If you have this car right now u'll be in retro style lol.
