Maybe its a east coast thing

I saw the coca cola truck once on the west coast... of Finland.

I've only left the east coast once in my entire nearly 40 years.

Did you happen to leave the east coast in 1995 and miss the commercial?

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

As a kid, I was allowed to watch two shows of my choice per week (I chose Power Rangers and Batman: TAS) plus what my parents watched (FRIENDS, Simpsons and Seinfeld). I saw clips of other shows in commercials and such, but didn't really see other shows until approximately 2007.

I didn't really see many commercials until then.
