Movin' OnBy Wikipedia
Movin' On (also known as In Tandem) was a television show
that ran for two seasons (and a total of forty-six episodes), between 1974
and 1976. It originally appeared on the NBC
television network.
Movin' On starred Claude Akins as trucker Sonny Pruitt, and
Frank Converse, who played his co-driver Will Chandler. The theme music
for the show was written by Merle Haggard.
The semi-tractor featured on the pilot episode was a dark green 1973
Kenworth W-925, but was later changed to a 1974 model for the series run.
The CB Radio boom in the mid-Super70s figured into a merchandising
tie-in for the show, and Movin' On-brand walkie-talkies (which worked on
CB channel 14) were marketed to children.

[My favorite episode was] the one where the little girl mistakenly got into Will and Sonny's sleeper and they were halfway across the country before she was discovered in the sleeper. I loved all the episodes, and wish I could find them on DVD or tape for my little boy. He loves trucks, and I think he would cherish these shows! --Anonymous | Note: This is just a random sample of the Movin' On messages in our TV forums!
