I caught some of the game last night, but had to call it a day sometime during the 3rd quarter due to the time difference and having work today. In an era when most of the good sport is pay-per-view, I was surprised to find the game being shown live on the BBC. I doubt we would have seen the same commercials here anyway, but the BBC is commercial-free, so every time y'all had a break, our guys went back to the studio for a chat. Consequently I'm grateful for the link MeadowMufn posted, otherwise I'd have missed out.
For anyone who didn't see the commercial last night or hasn't had a chance to watch it on YouTube yet, here's a couple of screengrabs to whet your appetite. Is it my imagination, or did they digitally remove the camera that is normally visible hanging off the passenger side of the General at the beginning of the jump?.

Brian obviously knows more about these cars than I do but, going by his description, I'd say the car in 'The Ghost of General Lee' is a 4 door '65 Impala. The rear view clearly shows the three circular lights he mentioned, confirming that it's not a '66:
It's not surprising that they're gettting rarer with Rosco around, they show him hitting it twice in the same chase (same crash from different angles). This shot was the best I could get of the front:

It's hardly surprising that Uncle Jesse had trouble finding his mortgage money each month, he changed his truck nearly as often as Rosco changed patrol car.
In the Georgia episodes he drove a '68 Stepside with the red Ford lettering clearly visible on the tailgate. After that he drove a variety of F100s, F150s and even F250s (so I've read elsewhere), some with short beds, some with long, and with varying amounts of dirt. Bo, Luke and Daisy's desire for driving clean vehicles never seem to extend to Jesse's truck. Other trim pieces like mirrors and hub caps also appear/disappear randomly.
I've decided to go for the long-bed version of the 1973 F100:

Welcome to HazzardNet.
We have shirts with the dukes the cars and now in the process of painting his room orange 01 painted on the wall with confederate curtains!!I'm a good bit older than your son, and that color scheme sounds good to me
.I am now planning a road trip to Cooters place in Nashville so he can see the cars this Summer. I would love to be able for him to meet some of the cast that is still around.hope to find lots of info from you folks here!
I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for here. I'm on the wrong continent, but many HNet members have been to Cooters and/or met cast members. Just keep an eye on the announcements for where the cast members are appearing next.

There's nothing wrong with a bit of 'Easy Listening' every now and again

Well done Lizzy, you saw through the red herrings. First Rosco reversed into The Boars Nest, then knocked Boss's front bumper off. The war memorial sign (which I've recreated in the Signs of Hazzard thread) got run over when Hard Luck steals the APC.
Q. In 'Treasure of Hazzard' Laura Bardsley has a letter from Lt. General Walker Atkinson dated Nov 2nd 1862, the day before what historic event?.

Welcome to HazzardNet Molly. I think you'll find us a friendly bunch. It's good to hear that you're also introducing another generation to DoH

The current question in 'The Official Dukes of Hazzard Trivia Thread' is from 'Follow That Still', so I thought I'd recreate Boss Hogg's 'War Memorial' sign. It's a strange shape, and shows Boss to be modest to a fault

(Dance Mix)
Another great track from the '80s (sorry there's no video, but this one had the best audio - the original video is available on YouTube). For those of you who like their music darker and heavier, there's also cover version by

Open Your Mind - U.S.U.R.A.
Back to the early '90s for a classic dance track. The video demonstrates the level of computer animation back then. Fans of music from the '80s may recognize a large sample from Simple Minds' New Gold Dream.

I should know this since it's one of my favorite episodes.
I'll guess a patrol car and some flowers.
If I was a betting man I'd bet I'm wrong about both.
Roger, you could win a fortune betting against yourself
. No correct answers yet. I'll make it multiple choice - it's two of the following:A) War memorial sign
The Boars NestC) Jesse's pickup
D) Old cannon
E) General Lee
F) Boss's Cadillac
G) Gas pump

Here's an unfinished variation of the 'Drive Carefully' billboard from 'Goodbye General Lee'. This one doesn't get destroyed, although the painter ends up on the hood of Cooter's tow truck. The exclamation mark is different in this one and there's also an extra star either side of the 'National Safety Week' text at the top.
Lulu (appropriately) gets her own billboard in 'Share and Share Alike':

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.

Welcome back Lizzy. I think Granny Annie paid the boys $20, but it was in fake $5 bills, so waikiki was right.
Q. At the start of 'Follow That Still', what 2 things does Rosco hit as he tries to park the armored personnel carrier for Boss?.

punishment

Thanks for the review DaisyMae. It's unlikely I'll ever to get to one of these concerts, so it's great to have a first-hand account.

Very sad news. I trust the source, but the announcement doesn't seem to have hit the usual sites yet. My thoughts are with her friends and family.
