What is the film that I think Clint Eastwood stars. I think the film starts with Clint in a open top car and he is driving down this stretch of road and a big truck turns in front of the car, so Clint swerves and drives under the trailer.


Then later on in the film he has to make a run for it as the police of coming for him, so his trucking mates all gang together via their CB and stop the police in convoys.

the film is not Every Which Way But Loose or Any Which Way You Can or Convoy. So what is this film?

Can someone please put me out of my misery, thanks

Sound like Smokey and the Bandit with Burt Reynolds to me. Black Trans-Am by any chance?

Was it a monkey or an oranutang? If the latter, then I'd suggest "Every which way but loose"

Right turn, Clyde.
