You can outrun the Duel truck, right /o/?

>>28469605 (OP)
Anything can outrun the duel truck. It's when you stop running and it catches up is the problem.

I've been thinking about this movie lately. Is it streaming anywhere?
I always thought the guy in the car was Tom Selleck

Wasn't this Spielberg's first movie?

>I always thought the guy in the car was Tom Selleck
It was Dennis Weaver, who pretty much can't act but mogs Selleck in about everything else judging by their bios.

>>28471374
yes, and it was made for TV as part of ABC's Movie of the Week series.

Imagine showing this to modern zoomers. They'd be on their phones by minute 10.

>>28469605 (OP)
Actual speed, or movie-speedometer speed?

>>28471538
They'd probably like it, they just don't know about it, I'm a phone nigger myself and I thought the movie was based, I just didn't know about until I was in my very late teens.

>>28469605 (OP)

I think the stunt trucks had a cummins and topped out at about 90, which is pretty damn impressive for 71, especially when you consider the cuckening of cars that came later in the 70s and 80s, the duel truck would've eaten people up easily, you had V8 engines having similar or less HP than a "crappy" 225 slant 6 plymouth.

>>28471493
bro, why did they give him such a thicc booty.

You're now aware jeets have a rip off version

>>28471904
Ram into the enemy truck like in the ending scene, except you gain the upper hand and flip his cab over

I represent the law. Don't you understand? I REPRESENT THE LAW!

Listen here sugartits, this may be some deep in joke I'm not aware of (in which case that's really funny) but if you're gonna make claims as to who I am make sure you get the right truck and trailer.
Ethan fuckin HATES me :)

Amazing film. My tires are rated to only 120; but my engine/trans can do 140 for days; As for me, who knows?

Well piss on ya. And piss on your Law. *Quacking noises*

>>28469605 (OP)
No of course not. I'd ignore the gas station lady and refuse to replace my worn radiator hose.
So in the 1000 degree California summer heat my car would be guaranteed to breakdown,.
Also, I need to crash into fences and stop for a cheese sandwich.

>>28471371

No. Pretty sure it was Burt Reynolds

>>28469605 (OP)
Outrun? lol... the poor fool...
Really though, my old Tacoma can at least get up to 65-70. Taking it on it's first 80mph road trip tomorrow. The semi from the film couldn't actually reach the speed limit on today's interstates. My Rio would smoke them both. Knowing how a lot of truckers are from too much time on the interstate he'd probably get run off the road by another trucker in a newer faster semi for going too slow and end up closing the entirety of 84 for the day as usual.

If a truck is chasing you just turn, in fact just drive in an arc/ circle. It will not keep up with you at all.

>>28476317
>diesel fumes

>>28471744
Depends how far you want to stretch the definition of "semi". This "semi" did 228 mph.

>>28481773
Why do they call it a semi? It makes me fully erect.
