Some nice Ford trucks there and at least one Chevy. I don;t know if the creator of the video meant to have just Ford cars and trucks but he fer sure had a pic of a pre-48 Chevy pickup, you know the kind with the chrome grille.

Who sang the song?

Jerry Reid was the singer. Jerry was in the Smokey and the Bandit shows, The Truck driver. He did most of the vocals in them.

He may have but I don`t think so.
Jim Stafford is the one I remember singing ''I Don`t Like Spiders and Snakes, Roger Miller wrote and sang the big hit ''Trailers For Sale or Rent''.
Jerry Reed did how ever have a lot of great hits, a great singer!

Close but no cigar,
"I Don't Like Spiders and Snakes" was performed by Jim Stafford, another wild man on the guitar. He still has daily shows at hise place in Branson, Missouri.

Trailers for Sale or Rent, is actually titled "King Of The Road", written and performed by Roger Miller

Jerry Reed is an awesome talent

That was a great video
