    guise, lets not forget the biggest blockbuster hit in recent times, Fast and Furious, where these punks try to rob some 18 wheelers with fast cars and even faster wimmins,

    Funny, my 17 yr old son just finnished watching Smokey and the Bandit an hour ago. Now he says he wants to drive... well he wants to be a stunt driver! I guess that explains the side of my F-150. He may need more practice!

    I know what you mean. I still watch it just cuz i like Patrick swayze movies, plus the real star of that movie was the 379.

    If you watch at the beginning when Jr. is bringing the Pete out of the garage you'll notice its got Shorty stacks that end just above the sleeper, but when they start driving down the road all of a sudden its got 13'4" tall stacks lol

    I think Trucker's biggest problem is the name. Most people anticipate something it is not. It wasn't what I was expecting, but I didn't think it was bad, of course I like indy films. I think they could have polished it up to make it a good movie, but I'm guessing they didn't have the time or budget. On the other hand, I've met truckers whose lives are as messed up as hers, or even worse.
