The Pete 377 in the 1997 Movie 'Breakdown': One of Peterbilt's least Popular Tractors?

Some background: I first caught this Kurt Russell sleeper on cable TV a couple years after its 1997 release. Years later, I bought it on DVD, and it's like watching for the first time every time I play it!

As for the subject vehicle, a late 1980s Peterbilt model 377 tractor driven by the late J.T. Walsh, I personally have never seen any on the highways around where I live. The front fender/ headlamp flares seemed quite 'aero' for its day, but then along came the 379, a less sleek throwback paying homage to Peterbilts from the 1970s and before.

I respect your choice, but Pete 281 will always have a special place in my heart.

I tend to like the less popular of things in given categories.
(The Pete 377 for instance, or among classic rockers: Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel)

And to have minority opinions on issues.
(Most Americans consider posted speed limits to represent the slowest that one should drive. I consider it the fastest)

I'm used to being an outlier.
(I also never drank(alcohol) in my whole life!)
