What a useless suggestion! I have been searching on Google for 3 days and have found nothing useful.try doing a search on google or something.
Ok, first of all, that's rude, I think you owe KITT an apology. She was just trying to help, and there are just some thoughts you should honestly keep to yourself.Arjun wrote:What a useless suggestion!

That's a rather skewed opinion. That's like saying that RC's bike had as much of a special place in Knight Rider. KITT was the center of the show, and the semi was the unit that met him from place to place. KITT's garage and technicians should also have that special place, too, I guess. Not too many people care about the semi, because it was just a prop, compared to the star of the show. There isn't much to say about the semi, either.The search results highlight pages with GMC and General from General Motors in them. Nothing about GMC General- the truck.
I'm also disappointed with the fact that there are no Knight Rider websites with enough information on the foundation mobile unit. This site (http://www.knightrideronline.com) only has a 1-line description. I think the Foundation Mobile Unit has a special place in Knight Rider, just as much as KITT.
Most of the truck drivers are a little busy doing their deliveries as to spend their time on a message board. I think you will find that most of the people on this board are not truck drivers, but replica owners, and the semi just isn't a high priority for them.Perhaps some of the truck drivers who post on this forum might help. On the Airwolf forum (tv-series.com), there is a helicopter pilot who sometimes posts.
I don't really like that kind of response. If someone asked me for Wolverine's history in Alpha Flight, I would search for that and post links. You can actually try searching for anything on the truck on Google, you'll know what I am talking about. A simple, "It's slightly difficult to find it" was enough.Ok, first of all, that's rude, I think you owe KITT an apology.

I don't agree with that part of RC's dirt bike, though that was also one of my own favourites in the 4'th season. However, it was a bit of a joke, it was an old relic from a garage and made a lot of noise. It was introduced late in the 4'th season and was rarely used.That's a rather skewed opinion.

Well, some of them make web pages. There might actually be a few GMC General drivers who are fans of Knight Rider. They might post a few here. Just like the helicopter pilots on the Airwolf forum. Not just drivers, but also GMC General fans.

Just because you aren't getting the information you want when you want it does not mean that you can get short about it.
Hmmm.... a Volvo truck would be a lot better than a Galaxy transport aircraft. But would you choose a curved truck design over the box-like General? Or would you need more space? Unless the VN780 is bigger than the General. This might be more of a KR2000 semi than one for KR.I tried looking in the Yahoo directories for the division of GMC that manufactures long-haul tractor-trailers, and I wonder if it even exists anymore... all the other major manufacturers had sites up: Volvo, Freightliner, Mack, Peterbilt, but GMC didn't.
If GMC got out of the semi business, I'd nominate the Volvo VN780 to be the new FLAG semi... for a big truck, it looks really nice.
I honestly don't care if you like or don't like the response, there was no need to be rude about it. And honestly, if you narrow the search properly and use Google the way it is supposed to be, I am sure that you could find plenty of stuff on it. I know I did, but thanks to your rather rude response to another member on the board, I honestly don't feel like it is worth my time to give you the links. That's how I search for things.Arjun wrote:I don't really like that kind of response. If someone asked me for Wolverine's history in Alpha Flight, I would search for that and post links.

What carried KITT all around the US? KITT. KITT only went into the semi when he needed to be fixed. What carries Devon and Bonnie all around? Devon's Mercedes. I didn't ask you, it is as much of a prop as Devon's mercedes, RC's bike, and the Foundation house.I don't agree with that part of RC's dirt bike, though that was also one of my own favourites in the 4'th season.

It is more than just something that carries KITT. More special than RC, his bike, or David Dalton (one of my favourite characters in KR).
Oh, so now you are into dictating information? Sorry, that won't exactly work around here. It wasn't an order, it was a suggestion. And if you continue to get short, then you won't get any help except from those who like being abused.Well, some of them make web pages. There might actually be a few GMC General drivers who are fans of Knight Rider. They might post a few here. Just like the helicopter pilots on the Airwolf forum. Not just drivers, but also GMC General fans.
Perhaps if there were a few ideas/links/pictures than such orders as "Look on Google", I would not get short about it. Besides, the semi is definitely one of my favourite vehicles in KR. A suggestion like this one would be better.
If you are making a Knight Rider page, can I join you in this plan?Well I personnal think that the semi was a bit more then a prop, but is there really that much to tell?? There was never any real infomation given out on the truck. Maybe when I make a web site I will make a "semi information page" and scan in little hand draw blueprints and have pictures and stuff. In the mean time, sorry I can't help you!
Someone uses PhotoShop, he can make a few minor changes. Except for the border colour and the absence of the Knight Symbol, it's quite close.As far as the Hanks Trucks picture is concerned, I have no idea how similar they are but without the rear cab it just isn't the same
