I think I saw it. I came in late in the show but looks interesting. What channel and times does it come on?

I saw part of a re-run last night. Looks like a 68 but I didn't see a roof rack on the cab so I might be thinking of something else.
Seems to be a pretty good show. I like those kind of after the end shows. Only the smart will survive

I spotted a couple of them while watching an old Steve McQueen movie a couple weeks ago. The movie title is Junior Bonner. They were new or nearly so when it was made.

It seems that the only vehicles that aren't Fords are the bus and the GTO. They even have a early Focus being used as a barricade.

Looks like the bump didn't make it out of the season finale. The dent did though...

There was a nice 69 in the gas burner puller class at the Sonoma County fairgrounds tonight. Showtime.

I am sure they'll go back and get the Bump. They liked it too much to leave it for the Skinners to use. lol I really got to liking that show and now it will not be on until the summer of 2012. Why do they do that to us? Get us really liking something that is actually interesting for once and then POOF!
I actually think something like this happening in real life would be good for this world. At least the ones that lived through it. I would probably do pretty well as I scrounge real well and can keep an old truck running. I never saw the 1st couple of shows and can't find them but from the sound of it they set off a magnetic pulse that ruined all of the electronic stuff which is why they are using older trucks and cars I guess.
Oh well, back to the History and Military History channels.

Late response to this but I watched that movie a few weeks ago. Was kind of slow mnoving to me but you're right, tons of good looking old trucks!

There's one in Rise of the Plant of the Apes...not sure of the year but it didn't have a tin Ford logo across the tailgate.
