slpwlker Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I always thought the ole girl had a Cat. but hell sounds change so much. still think it was a great sounding truck. Hell till I read the specs on the duck I thought it had a detroit.1 Convoy followed by SMokey and the Bandit 1. I never cared for the other 2. Black dog. I never really saw Duel and always seem to miss it when they play it now. Just like Maximum over drive.

Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 There was a black and white movie where at least twelve drivers were racing to see who could make the most loads. The prize was a thin bar of gold and they were driving 6 wheel dumps. I think White Mustangs. Has anyone ever seen this movie? Gotta see it again on Netflix! Here is Fullfuel01's movie truck from Death Race Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30162-truck-movies/page/2/#findComment-168849 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAD DOG Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I'd have to say Smokey and the Bandit is my favorite' then after that comes High Ballin with Jerry Reed and Peter Fonda. White Line Fever is a good one too. and for my favorite tv series would have to be Movin On.

RFCDrum Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I was watching the new Godzilla with Matthew Broderick with my seven year old(were big Godzilla fans) on TV and I forgot about the scene with Stavola Contracting bringing in their RD tandems and dumping loads of fish in the middle of Manhattan. Just a cool scene. Cheers, Rob Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30162-truck-movies/page/2/#findComment-172824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
