I can see if I can get the marketing material from them. I remember asking at the time for hard copies or digital copies and for some reason, it was like pulling teeth. Just like how it only went to a couple of their markets, I almost wondered if there was some liability or legal issue why they limited it so much. I know I asked two or three times back then, and didn't have much luck then. Really, really weird, but I didn't question it much at the time. I'll see what I can round up though.

Re: Approached to have truck in a Movie or TV show
Rhino has been on tv twice on breakfast time in Toronto Frankie "Flowers" loves him also on a news spot on local Tv he was used to block view of acciddent (fatal) and was on all the local news media. We have been approched to have Rhino in a staged ramming of another car . Kevin 's one demand is he operates Rhino.

Re: Approached to have truck in a Movie or TV show
The previous owner of my truck rented it out for a number of movie/ tv shoots, and it appeared quite regularly in the tv show "Nikita"
About a year ago I was approached by a company wanting my H1 slantback for an episode of "Aaron Stone", a kids show produced for Disney. Filming was to take place at the old Downsview base. Price agreed to, and they would transport by truck there and back, and was only to be used for static scenes. They even sent a guy up to measure it for the green screen. The woman I was dealing with kept promising to email a contract, which I told her I needed before the truck left the driveway. After several requests for the contract and none provided, she called me 2 days before asking if it was still good to go. Told her as soon as I see the contract. She called back the next day and cancelled. Checked out her info. Her 2 phone numbers were suspicious. One to a business in the north end of Toronto, the other to National Car Rental near Pearson. Spoke to Cam Wooley a couple months later, because he's done alot of movie vehicle stuff. He had never heard of her company (which I have since forgotten).
Moral of the story...check out before you rent out.
