Sometimes you just gotta burn something down, right? No, the answer is no and if you said yes, you’re a pyromanic and you failed the test! This video from Carly Pearce is a jilted ex’s dream, never mind that she’d be in a truck load of trouble for the property damage she’s guilty of. Cheating on a partner isn’t illegal, however lighting someone’s property on fire is… so don’t do this at home, folks! Check out Carly “Pyro” Pearce in the music video for “Truck on Fire,” then scroll down for one common mistake that’s trending in Nashville…
Check the Box. People love their boxy trucks so setting this late 80s-era Ford F150 is going to get some people riled up. At least she didn’t touch the Mustangs, though, right? She deserves some credit for having an ounce of respect for the classic car heritage. But after taking the truck for a joyride through a field and through a mailbox, couldn’t she have parked it just a wee bit further away from the sports cars? I guess we can give her a pass, she was rage-driving anyway. That pass shall not, and will not, extend to a faux pas I’ve seen in a handful of other videos lately– Thomas Rhett and Lauren Watkins.
The Hot (Mis)Take. I love Carly Pearce and hope she continues having great success but I wish she had noticed and put her foot golden boot down on one aspect of the music video. The very first line of the song reads, “Always thought you loved that black Z71 more than you loved me…” Well, maybe he would’ve loved you more if you stopped calling his Ford a Chevy! Ever think about that!? This happens way more than it should and I often point back to Jason Aldean’s “Dirt Road Anthem” where the video was shot with Jason standing ON A PAVED ROAD!?!? Carly is the latest to fall prey to this and what’s with all the Fords? Bro country came and went but at least Florida Georgia Line used a Chevrolet in “Cruise” where they specifically mention a “brand new Chevy with a lift kit.”
Your obsession with Fords is getting a little weird, Nashville. Also, when the lyrics mention a Z71, burn a Z71! You owe it to us literalists out here.
