Convoy remake?
I grew up watching the film Convoy most days (think I still know it word for word!)
I thought it would make a great new film, with all the new Trucks and special effects ect.. What does anyone think?
p.s. yes, I am bored - my wife is studying downstairs, and I can't be assed to read up on my French.

Re: Convoy remake?
he he he, now I'm grinning like a kid again!
I always begged my Dad to buy a long nose Truck instead of a conventional one, as I didn't want to be "Pig Pen"
On one of our Holidays we were driving from Colorado through New Mexico, then into Texas. I wanted to go to Albequirk (dont know how to spell it) but didn't want to tell the wife that was where Rubber Duck came from!

I spent two weeks in Germany on an Engineering course whilst I was at college. I think I mainly said "Ein Bier Bitter" many times!

Thanks ,thats nice to know,got a lot of respect for truck drivers,dont know how you do it. I always let em go at roundabouts cause I think all that wieght they carry if you break fast its got to go to the front. Dont know if thats right but I always think that.
