Hi Guys,
Don't recall if this was mentioned yet on the list, at least I don't recall.
Last night I was watching the movie "Bad Boys 2" while channel surfing after the Jet/SanDiego game. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are in a fast Ferrari chasing the bad guys who are driving a car-hauler semi through the byways of Miami surroundings. I just flipped on the right moment when the car-hauler semi going around a turn ram-rods a nice looking late 70's Campmobile.
This was supposed to be in Miami or was it a studio in LA? It was a nice lime green 78-ish looking Westy. The Semi clipped the van from the back and crushed it over forward - sad sad use of good props. Why didn't they crush an Aztec or a Hummer?
Was this anyones innocent bystander van or was it a donnated token?
Sad! More precious metal gone to the crushers. We should send a collective complaint letter to the movie studios and producers to use these endangered species with more respect.
Happy Camping,
