I have to say I love the theme song, its catchy and actually tells the story. Thats pretty funny about the Bandit Run. They even did a mock up of the semi trailer a few years ago:
What a great movie. I wanted to be a truck driver and Trans Am owner for several years after seeing this. I preordered off Amazon for under $15. I put in the DVD to show some scenes to my kids a few weeks ago having forgot about the "salty" language. Ooops! Looking for it on TV to DVR for them.
