"Ain't Nothing Like a Caterpillar Engine."

You reminded me I need to rent that movie again. It was on cable the other day but forgot to DVR it.

Whats the name if teh movie.

 

Black Dog. Starring Randy Travis, Patrick Swayze, and Meatloaf.

 

Pretty lame. Shame to see Patrick fighting pancreatic cancer.

 

I havent seen this movie for quite a few years, but its amazing how many errors you catch in the movie. Im surprised that red day cab had a tag axle on the rear. Also none of the cars on the car hauler are strapped down. And no damage to the grlls when they ram the trailer ahead of them.

 

If you will listen close, the supposed Caterpillar engine in the Pete is an 8V92 Detroit.

 

I noticed that the first time i ever saw it!! LOL

 

The only thing I saw was improperly loaded cars. Cars should never come loose off of a car carrier.

The steer axle shouldve never came flying off like it did on the day cab either.
Plus I cant exactly see the "cat" or 8v92 being able to over power a tractor and trailer using full brakes on an incline if his load was that heavy in the first place.
The other part that movie drama is "burn it up", cant really burn up a clutch by anything there doing.
also to have no trailer damage after the car hauler rams into the side of the trailer.
I think theres a couple errors at the end of the movie when meat loaf is chasing him throught that steel yard.
