To tell you the truth..the truck is the most important thing.


It doesn't matter if I become the champion...I just really need this truck.

LOL very inspiring!

You white, then you Ben Affleck.

I think this is the only movie that I have seen where the contender is not interested in winning at all. He knows he has to, but everything depends on the truck and the money, so he can start over.

Should have kept the old truck. Way more badass. It was nice to see the truck from Duel play a good guy for once. Warms my f n heart, man.

Worked out well a truck was offered as a prize.

If it was the truck offered as a prize that was all (and the only thing) that mattered to Hawks, that is kind of odd. I imagine the truck offered by Grandpa Cutler was far more superior than the truck offered as a prize.

ideally, Hawk should have double-crossed Cutler, and walked away with $740,000 and 2 brand new trucks

I never thought of that possibility, Shiddy! Good call.
