Wayne,

Someone may have gotten more publicity demonstrating P&G than you. It was someone that finally turned green, but before he really was, he demonstrated P&G in a movie.

Anyone know who and the movie? :D

Steve Mcqueen

He may have, but that's not who I had in mind.

The P&G might was really "Push and Glide" :D

Might as well give the answer.

Early in Commando, the terrorists have kiddnapped Arnuld's daughter and are speeding down a mountain. Arnuld finds a Suburban - it won't start - so he pushes it down the mountain and catches them. :D

Well, for "Push and Glide", the Blues Brothers ran out of gas and Jake pushed the car into the gas station and glided in dragging his feet.
What'd'I win?

I have a cleanmpg keychain pen ;) But you already have one of them.

For what it's worth, I doubt the Nat Park Service would let Ahnuld push a Suburban or anything else off-trail at the summit of Pike's Peak. :D

They do have an annual Pikes Peak road race, but I bet they drive from the base to the summit.

Hi Chuck:

___There was a Movie called “Commando” where Arnold pushed a Chevrolet Tahoe (I think it was a Tahoe?) with the motor shot up down a mountain trying to catch the bad guys who kidnapped his daughter (Alyssa Milano). Lots of stuff blowing up in that movie too ;)

___Good Luck

Wayne,

Commando was the movie I meant, but not sure as to the vehicle.

My favorite part was chasing Sully up the mountain in Arnuld's "girlfriend's" sports car:

"Remember Sully when I promised to kill you last? I LIED"
"What did did you do with him? " "I let him go"
later in the motel: "I eat Green Beret's for breakfast" (i.e. Rambo)
"We'll take his (the Green Beret thug) car - he won't be needing it"
