Joe Gage's first film, hugely successful, it was the first of the Kansas City Trucking Co., El Paso Wrecking Corp., L. A. Tool & Die trilogy. Richard Locke is the star of all 3 of the "trilogy", and here he plays an older trucker who is assigned to work with a new kid (big-dicked, str8, Steve Boyd). But before leaving on their first haul together, he and dispatcher/boss Jack Wrangler manage some very hot sex. The one annoyance, although I am used to the "dubbing" so commonly used in some flicks mid-70's, is that Locke's voice is not his own ( he's the narrator, and it makes me wonder if it's Gage doing the narration). On the road, there is a fantastic use of dream-like sequences, flash-backs, etc, while Locke describes to Boyd how to deal with "urges" on the road, away from his girlfriend.
