This was the first movie I saw on VHS. I don't remember much of it, what I remember is:
*a hero is driving convertible(?) and drinking whisky(?) out of bottle. Then he throws empty bottle over his head and accidently smashes the window of a truck driving behind him.
*film ends with similar scene
*there is lots of car chases in the highway and bar fights with truckers
I don't remember anything else about it. I'm almost sure it's american b-movie.
Please help, I've been trying to track this film down for over a decade!
VHS era (70s? or most likely 80s) action movie with truckers

Wow, this sounds familiar as hell. I believe I have seen this picture. Unfortunately, it was when I was a child, and I have no clue about the name, either.

Convoy? First thing to come to mind.

It's definitely not Convoy, which I re-watched recently, especially since the (memorable) opening involves Ali McGraw seducing and distracting Kris Kristofferson.

Way too new and judging from the trailer, way too serious for what I remember..

So, I watched Dumb And Dumber To yesterday, and after-credits scene seemed like a reference/rip-off from the movie I'm looking for. Here's the description:
We see Lloyd and Harry riding on the Zamboni down a major highway. It’s seems as if they have stopped off at a fast food restaurant and picked up malts in the drive through. Lloyd ordered a chocolate malt and Harry, a vanilla malt. However, they were disappointed they were given the wrong Malts, Lloyd had been given a vanilla and Harry a chocolate. Disgusted by this turn of events you see them throw both malts over their shoulders only to land on the windshield of the 18-wheeler that Lloyd was kissing earlier in the movie. You see the driver get fuming mad and floor the throttle of his truck to ram the guys, only for the scene to cut away and see a heading for “Dumb and Dumber For” coming in 2034.
