Manic Monday - Kit
MM Headquarters ~ Previous MMs
I know there's an extra T in there, but when I saw this week's theme this car immediately popped into my head. I LOVED this show growing up. I remember Michael Knight played by David Hasselhoff very well! When I was a kid I remember playing Knight Rider in the back yard. We'd pretend KITT would save us from any given situation, just as KITT did in the show Knight Rider!
Facts you might or might not know about KITT:
*KITT was a very witty and sarcastic form of artificial intelligence. This car could actually carry on conversations with Michael.
*KITT could drive himself when Michael was otherwise engaged, keeping in contact via a wrist communicator or "comlink" (a modified LCD AM radio watch).
* KITT's Pontiac Trans AM chasis was reinforced with "Wilton Knight's revolutionary Molecular Bonded Shell" which was resistant to most weapons.
*KITT could accelerate to speeds nearly 300 mph.
*KITT was fueled by liquid hydrogen.
*KITT had the ability to print money.
*KITT's speech is reflected in a 'voice modulator' located above the customised steering wheel.
*KITT had the the ability to generate electical charge.

Brilliant! I never thought of this "Kitt"!
LOL--I guess great minds think alike :) Happy MM.
The 80s ladies seem to have a fondness for verbose automobiles.
good one honey!
smiles, bee
I saw this car at Universal Studios...but I never actually watched the television show....
My husband was a big fan of this show. When I asked him what he thought of when he heard the word Kit, this is immediately what popped out of his mouth. I, on the other hand, chose Kit Kats!
you are the second one today who reminds me of these series, lol ! And I just saw an interview with David Hazelhoff where they showed some extrays ! I liked it very much.
It's like deja vu all over again...
Great post! Happy MM!
Hi "Crazy". I also thought about KITT, and am glad I didn't do my post on that awesome car. I always try to come up with stuff no one else writes about, haha. You did a great job with this post!!!
"Hop" on over and see what it is that I did post on. :o)
WHOOF, you did a woofnderful job on this post. KITT was before this dawg's life, arf, arf.
What would a dawg write about kit? Come find out!
That was an AWESOME car!!! I love stuff that goes fast and can spin the tires and leave rubber! I still want a Corvette, darn it!
Terrific post, my dear!
Great MM post! I preferred the Batmobile (smile)...
I had a rough time figuring this one out, but, my MM post is up and running now.
peace, Villager
Everyone else seems to have thought of Kitt, from Nightrider. I sat on my couch with a dumb look on my face for fifteen minutes and never came up with a decent post. I'm jealous. LOL!

Very cool info, I loved that show. Happy MM! :D
I remember watching this show.. barely :) Loved it though! I am amazed at how little David Hasslehoff's hair has changed since these days! ;)
The Hoff and KITT! Wooooooooooooo!
Happy MM!
This brings back some awesome memories. That was when David Hasselhoff was super hot.
Great show - Great car - Great post!
I thought about this Kitt, but since I never watched the show, I didn't have a whole lot to say about it :) Thanks for educating me!
Happy MM!
