Some time ago, I heard about this scientist and his group working on a car that could drive by itself. Basically, they installed a computer with software into the trunk of the car and installed electromagnetic sensors on the bottom of the car in order for it to sense electromagnets that were install...

Okay, now that I know that, I have a question: What is the ground effects for? It doesn't make any sense as to why they would be there.

From what I've been told, KITT's interior isn't as good. That the dashboard has been drawn and written on by people who have gotten a chance to sit in the car.

Happy B-Day dude. Sorry I'm late on saying this. But better late than never.

Actually, I thought of it being more of a compact thing. Maybe something like A.M.E.E. from "Red Planet". Something that can fit into a confine space and be ready for use when needed.

Actually, for the "Knight Rider" "film" series ideas I had for the "Producer's Chair" game, I thought about KITT having a special robotic body that he could download himself into, so he would be able to go into areas that his normal car body couldn't go into (like the t...

Addition to Speedbreaker's info- The car they used in "The Wraith" was in fact a prototype by Dodge called the Turbo Interceptor (which costed at the time $6 million to make). There were six "clones" of the car made (which totalled to $1 million dollars per "clone"). Al...

They should have the following on ALL the DVDs: Commentary by Glen A. Larson, the director of the episode, William Daniels and David Hasselhoff. Original teaser promos for the episode. Behind the scenes photos of the episode. An interactive Trivia game for the episode with KITT as your host (for DVD...

Well, that doesn't really count much. A dealership and the technicians at a dealership aren't connected to Ford as a whole. I mean, a dealership is like McDonalds. Companies supply the meat, buns and whatnot for their fast food. It's the same way with Ford and dealerships. Ford HQ supplies the deale...

What is it with you guys and Fords? I mean, I know that they used Fords in TKR, but that's not enough to actually have a lot of hatred towards Ford. Ford has made a lot of American classics. And I also agree that the GT90 is a very good looking car (though I would rather see KITT in the prototype 20...

Some films still use models. For example, "Independence Day", for the scenes where we see Washington, L.A., and New York destroyed, the buildings and cars are in fact models.

jup- Wouldn't be the first time. The poor excuse for a movie called "Cool World"

neps- Actuallly, Ang Lee could have used forced persception with a live actor. I mean, director Peter Jackson used forced perception for "Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring" in order to make the character of Gandalf look taller than all the hobbits. How could Ang have used this for ...

Well, if you're going to make KITT CGi, you might as well make the whole movie CGI ala "Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within" and "The Animatrix: The Final Flight of the Osiris" (short film). The funny thing is that with such CGI films (as mentioned) have a funny way of fooling your...

Some funny ones I thought about: 1. Knight Rider/Basic Instinct- Let's see, Michael is always a ladie's man... But what if Catherine Tramell (Sharon Stone's character from the film) was able to see through him to his very core? Would Michael be tempted into the dangerous world around her? Would KITT...

Ashton appears to be quite smart whenever you see him on his MTV show "Punk'd", which he in fact created himself. And I must admit, he is good at creating the scenarios for his show (I liked it when he punked Justin Timberlake. Too bad that in his contract, he's not allow to punk Britney S...

You know, you're right about the PONTIAC on the trunk, it IS a bit "flat". I didn't think about that.

I will most definetly see if the dremmel tool I found is more than a 3 speed first before I decide to go shopping around.

Thanks for the help.

Extremely cool. I think the dremmel tool I found was a plug-in type. I could be wrong (because I didn't buy it, but am considering on purchasing it). Well, if I purchase the dremmel tool, I have plans in using it to remove the Trans-Am name off the doors, the Pontiac name from the trunk of the car a...

Thanks for the info. I do have a question, but its not about the models. Its about tools for the construction of a model. I found a dremmel rotory tool for $25 dollars that I am thinking about purchasing. I was wondering if such a tool works on metal, seeing that I know that it works on wood and wha...

I don't know about hobby stores. However, Michaels, Wal-Mart and Toys R Us are the only stores that I know of that carry models (in Valdosta, which is 23 miles north of my home town, where as Tallahassee is 50 miles west). I'm not sure if any of them do that ordering thing.

Dave- I'm already using a Snap-Fast Ford F-150 extended cab for Beast. I also have a 1955 Chevy Cameo pickup truck that I am not really working on (nor have plans to work on for the fact that I only bought it because it came in a three model pack, including one 1997 Ford Mustang Cobra model I really...

Hey guys. Here's the update on my car model representations of TKR. As you know, Beast is done. I am still working on Domino. I'm still considering various things like if I should put the engine together and have it viewable like a normal car model, or if I should put it partically together and glue...

Sweet! The new model looks better!

To be honest, according to Dark Horizons a while back, they had a little bit of news for "Knight Rider", it saying that it was looking for writers for the project. (And this was like Monday of this week).

Actually, AI is already out in the world today. It's not just as advanced as KITT is. Where can you find these AIs? Simple, in first person shooters.
