Its good to see that the Mack Truck from Road Warrior was mentioned as a favorite. Although not the fastest and glamorous, it did have its own "personality".
Last of the V8 Intercepts, a piece of history, would have been a shame to blow it up

And what the heck was the engine in it?.....I love the roar it gives at the end of the final chase scene to let the plane take off!!!





Well, we do get a good look at part of the engine while Blackfinger is about to disconnect the battery..





Big 6/71 blower with dual carburetors (didn't look like Holleys.. Dunno what kind they were)


That means it's very unlikley to be anything but a V-8.


It's my understanding that the Cleveland is a very common and popular V-8 amoung hot rodders down there.. so That's my guess.

As for my favourite vehicles:


Toe-cutters bike. I love that beat up aggressive look.


BoB. MM2 version, for the same reason as above. Those tanks really did it for me.


While on the subject of cars, could this pic be MasterBlasters idea of an SUV??

Saw it the other day at a railyard near to where I live now in Normandy France. Yes its obviously a left over from the war. Bet it corners like it's on rails.... wait a sec' ... Duh!

Ich nicht verstehen. Ich gastarbeiter.
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.

If you ask me, the Batmobile is way cooler than any of those crappy vehicles in all 3 Max movies combined. The interceptor even kinda looks like a Batmobile rip off. Whats next in MM4? Bart and his Gremlin driving through the wasteland looking for twinkies and beer??
