    In Stephen Kings horror movie, maximum overdrive, All the trucks and heavy machinery come alive and attack people, but at one point in the movie, A 50's Mack tow truck comes out from behind a junk pile, They're is a white shell in the pile and it appears to be either a maverick or comet.

    At 0:17 in this video of scences of the movie remixed with Van Halen you can see the 1/2 mav.

    I think that Maverick needs a little work then it will be ready for the road, thanks for the info and video clip.
