Y all assume of course that they are full, not empty. Then forget about the 20 gallons of highly explosive liquid in the tank of the Buick. In a class, this would be an exercise to illustrate the personality traits of the viewers. ---

I dunno. I transported a tank of argon in my trunk for about six blocks. Cap on, secured from movement, for about a six block ride to my house. What could go wrong? Nothing. Vendor policy said no. Some folks are super averse is all. ---

An older man slept in a Buick like that one in our employee parking lot off and on for 2 years. If he had 30 gallons of water on a cargo rack, he could have bathed in the parking lot at night. ---

Yeah the danger is knocking the valve off which causes a projectile but for a short period of time could vastly improve mpg. ---

I had the metal cap on. wrapped it in a couple of comforters. I made sure that it could not move around with all the other last-minute stuff I brought down. ---

> [@MikeInNH](#): > > Bond always has a cute girl. True enough there’s always a cute girl nearby. The film plot’s question usually turns out to be whether he _has_ her, or she _has_ him ??? Usually it’s the latter … lol > [@MikeInNH](#): > > old Bond movie… Bond girl… name … not politically correct … It just wasn’t the same. I presume it was Goldfinger. Indeed “PG” is better than any made-for-tv moniker. I’m currently in the process of watching all the Bond films on DVD, more or less in order, finding some of the innuendo considerably more explicit than I recall on original viewing. Maybe I just didn’t understand it at the time. ---

Bond “girls” over the years had a number of such names. Had some extraordinary cars and car stunts. Sad, for me, seeing the 63(?) Lincoln crushed in Goldfinger. James’ DB5. Diana Rigg’s Cougar convertible. Myriad of interesting cars. Who can forget the AMC Hornet? ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/7/2/729315af934132b62182514f3cde61c7672e5e75.jpeg) ---

Pic looks like an episode of “Dukes of Hazard” gone wrong. ---

On my first ever date I took Jackie to see the bond movie. I guess she wasn’t impressed, but I liked it. ---

If it falls and the cap breaks off, the tank becomes a missile. These rules are instituted for the least capable among us, not people that can figure out how to secure the bottle, like you. ---

I used to haul; 40+thousand poun loads of ammunition and also the same weight of hydrazine in metal drums/ The hydrazine was marked store X distance from human habitation but I don’t remember what X was. A little gasoline doesn’t bother me. ---

> [@Purebred](#): > > Who can forget the AMC Hornet? Which Bond film is the upside down orange car in the photo from? I don’t recall seeing that scene yet in my Bond-film re-watch , but only up to 1965’s Thunderball. ---

I don’t recall the title, but was one of the films with Roger Moore as 007. BTW, Thunderball was the first Bond film I saw. First time at one of the big, downtown theaters rather than the smaller neighborhood theaters of the 60s. ---

The Man with the Golden Gun. With sidekicks Sheriff Pepper and Agent Goodnite. A classic ---

> [@PvtPublic](#): > > I think it was “Live and Let Die”. I’m currently watching that one, but it stars Sean C, not Roger M. A lot of helicopter stunt scenes, but as far as over-the-top car stunts, at least for the first half of the film, not so much. ---

I think gold finger was the one I took Jackie to but I don’t remember. She’s dead now so I’ll have to wait a while to ask her.
