There's a lot of truth to that, yes.
I was a kid when the show came out; I am a New England native (born Vermont, grew up in NE Massachusetts) and at that time I had never heard southern accents, or words/terms like "ain't" and "y'all." Naturally I started to glamorize the South in my mind with Hazzard as the basis (kid thing, we've all been there). 
Since then I've lived in 6 states including 7 years in Louisiana where I married into the culture. Although I would enjoy visiting Covington (had no idea until WELL into adulthood about the place) Hazzard is, more than anything, a place inside us, a place of extreme decency despite the best efforts of the "Law" and local "Leader."

And, y'all are gonna LOVE this one: totally scratchbuilt Dixie Horn! Not sure if anyone else has done this; if they have, I've never seen it. 
 





 
And here it is installed on the front of the radiator:

Thanks Roger!
Here's the chassis, suspension and exhaust, weathered with wear 'n' tear, and even some rust at appropriate places. Much of it will be covered/disguised by the road dust to be sprayed on last. Once installed, the edges received some orange overspray, indicating a home-done paint job.




 
The wheel hubs are from the old MPC General Lee kit. Chrome removed with bleach, then heavily sanded on the rear until the five openings were actually opened as they should be. Then primed, sprayed flat black, and detailed with aluminum paint. Not chrome. Those bits are shiny, but not quite chrome, with the possible exception of the lug nuts.Tires sanded with fine sandpaper and fine steel wool to remove the shiny vinyl "toy" look.




 
And, even the CB antenna; scratchbuilt styrene base, with a bit of High "E" metal guitar string. 




 
 

I don't think ANYONE liked it at all, except for the idiots who made and promoted it. It's horrible!!! Doesn't deserve the name "Duke."
I finally figured out how to explain the difference:
The Duke family on TV was 1) moral and decent, 2) respectful and respectable, 3) likeable and 4) law-abiding (not counting the corrupt local "law" and the speed limits).
The so-called "Duke" family in that film were 1) immoral, 2) disrespectful and disrespectable, 3) not likeable and 4) not law-abiding. 
I don't know who they were, but as far as I'm concerned, the shameful folks in that film were NOT repeat NOT Dukes. It is an ABOMINATION!!!

Engine and Engine bay. Replaced Fan belt pullys and belt with aftermarket. Sanded out most detail in engine bay for an insane scratchbuilding job.

He once had Black TIlly II, the '65(ish) Mustang, flat black, with the majorly souped-up engine, sitting there ready when Jesse ended up needing it to race Boss's challenge.

Great one, Hoss!
I move that if the Z's run out, it should be perfectly acceptable to end each alphabet with "HaZZard"

“Cousin, he just gave us the KISS of death!”
 

Yeah, that did occur to me, but thought I had more pride than to go there....bet the arresting officers thought of that, though....

Yeah, has to be Strange Visitor. Was painful and insulting to all involved IMO, including to the alien....
For some strange reason I find a LOT of the final season to be seriously lacking, including the awful models. To me that explained the real reason for the show's demise.

“...a little ol’ ice cream truck with NEKKID BABIES painted on the side....”
 

In fact, I truly go so far as to say, don't waste your time with either of the motion pictures. Not only wastes, but complete insults to all we cherish and hold as good and decent about the Dukes.

Y'all really should re-title this thread "Waylonisms."
