My wife kept teasing me about how I only wanted to look at the trucks. I didn't argue.

That's what I said when I saw it! Too bad it's an auto, and when he was "driving", the shifter was in park.

I noticed that the fender was cut off on the lower body line on one side of the truck but not the other. Also the new style benck seat. And the weatherstripping was missing around the door glass My G friend said the only reason I like the movie was for the truck . Not really the movie was pretty good.

Yep and if you watch much VH1 you would have seen on a Crib/Rides thing they had at a Custom shop called 301 or something they had a Custom 72 two tone red/white pickup in there shop.

I was watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre the other night, there a nice 71-71 at the end. There a nice GMC step in Christine too, plus a beautiful 68 Camaro and 69 Charger.

ROFL Ben and there I thought I was the only one that noticed that! I also liked the way he was taking those corners without turning the steering wheel.
But him and his mom both had nice trucks. I guess whoever made that movie has expierenced being drug to the movies by the wife/girlfriend and had to endure the horrors of a chick flick. |

I noticed he was driving in park. My friends thought I was nuts.
I also think that truck may have had Chevy front fenders on it. You can't install those GMC side grille pieces when you do that. I have one the same way. Still cool. I even watched it twice for the truck. And if you get the DVD, make SURE you check out the cut scenes! A thong scene that even makes you forget about the truck....lol |
