I don't know if this one has been mentioned or not. In Season 1, Inside Out, the cab of the truck carrying the gold is a Comtron truck.

Here's another ComTron truck. Season 4, Burial Ground. When Michael jumps the fence into the bad guy's compound, there is a flatbed truck, the cab is a ComTron truck.

Looks like you missed this one in "Ten Wheel Trouble." It'd be pretty cool if this model's colors were intentional...as if they knew one day people might look for stuff like this.

Wow, thanks for posting this! I had never realized how many times they had used those trucks! Now I have to watch every episode again (thanks for the reason) to see where they used them. It's hilarious!

I had that comtron toy set, and the kenner talking kitt with michael figure growing up. Now though, I wish I had disobeyed my parents and kept them....

That's awesome, Joe! Where'd you find it? Is that actually another company's colors?

this is a great thread... i'm sure i've read this...possibly in Joe's new book(which every fan should get)i believe the reason the contron trucks,semis are so frequent in so many episodes is that they were actually the studios(universal)own fleet and colours and so were probably used to transport equipment and the like to locations...episodes filmed on the universal backlot (a lot of them)would have many a truck parked up so having them in so many shots is not a suprise...but its amazing just how many scenes over the years they appear in....

devon;my dear boy,dont be so modest,you have a wide range of problems.
