There was one that I saw years ago but cannot remember the title...any help? No Smokey and the Bandit stuff.

The ones I'm thinking of were in Black and white...there may have been only one.

Maybe "They Drive By Night", also there was a movie maybe called "The Highway 1 (or 101) Gang". It was one of those "bad guys are really bad", almost a public service announcement types. Karl Malden did the closing statement about "these guys went bad because (liberal) judges were too easy on them early in life.

My personal favorite would be Violent Road with Brian Keith and Efrem Zimbalist Jr. Three trucks carrying rocket fuel components across the desert. Also known as Hell's Highway.

They Drive By Night, I found it on Netflix, and you can watch it in 12 parts on YouTube right now. I plan on watching it 2day.

Ida Lupino has a good part in this. Hot, verrry hot. Hotter and tastier than those burgers being flipped behind the counter....

This was the movie that I've seen years ago, but couldn't remember.

LOL, Convoy.

If you are going to include Duel, why not include Joy Ride (2001/I)

Wages of Fear

Salaire de la peur, Le (1953)

One of the greatest movies I've ever seen.
