Duel, because I was like 8 yrs old watching that. In Maximum Overdrive I was just hoping to see the hot chick naked.

Is that the truck that was used to try and kill a guy who was played by Dennis Weaver?

Yeah, GMAN.... that's the one. Movie called DUEL with Dennis Weaver. I think the sinister truckdriver was played by Belpre!

You used 'good' and 'CARB' together in the same sentence? What the crap?!?!?!
(For those who don't know, CARB here refers to the California Air Resources Board.) That truck was from the day when Peterbilt's headquarters were actually in California, not Texas.
Also, that was in the days before diamond-shaped placards were commonplace.

Duel was Spielberg's first movie.
