A Trucker Cap is a new trend in fashion for mindless people who follow the trends, not the fashion sense. Trucker Caps are for Truckers, theyre just like a normal cap, except a little larger in size: fabric/foam in the front half and visor, mesh in the half rear. They fall in the fashion category of "Spending-Mortgage-Dosh-On-Something-Made-To-Look-Cheap", with some caps made by designers and sold for $40 a pop. Muchly similar to pre-ripped jeans - $300, pre-soiled jeans $240, simple '70s' canvas shoes that sell for $130, bleached shirts $70, or shirts that have been ripped and patched up for $80. it ticks me off that these people are allowed to sh*t on clothes and sell them blatantly to a group of people who tick me off even more who actually fork out the money to buy them giving the reason that they actually like the product where trends or the look of looking poor have nothing to do with it. However its amusing to see these Bling-Bling* idiots wearing hats that say "TRUCKING IS FOR PUSSIES" or "FLUFF MY PILLOW BITCH" in their brightly coloured soiled jeans and purposely scrunched shirts prance towards the ice-cream stand. *"Bling-Bling" means flashy, showy, sparkly. |

the cap is pretty cr@ppy but it's still something for nothing! when you own a mini you need to be able to get as much you can for free!
probably just chuck mine on the parcel shelf along side my VMCI cap! Rohan |

some interesting facts from dvdorchard : Did You Know ? Paramount originally wanted Robert Redford for the part of Croker but he declined. A total of 16 Minis were used in the filming - the majority were destroyed. Some of the traffic jam scenes were real. Film crew blocked off lots of roads, much to the annoyance of the Italians. The race track the Mini Coopers drive on is actually at the top of Turin's FIAT factory. The building is a giant spiral production line with production beginning at the bottom and completion finishing at the top. When filming the bus hanging over the cliff, the downdraft from the helicopter started to tip the bus over. Stunt crew had to be pulled in to hang on to the front of the bus to stop it from falling. When heading in to the tunnel during the getaway chase from the bank, one of the cars loses a passenger, but he re-appears once they are out of the tunnel. Michael Caine did not learn to drive until the mid-1980's. The Director makes an appearance in the film when he flags the minis into the back of the van as no one else was prepared to do this because it was so dangerous ! Five different endings were filmed. |
