My older sister watched Mad Max every single fucking day one summer break when she was about 15. Not exaggerating. Now she's a 39 year old commercial truck driver that also has her own wildland firefighting company. She sent me a picture last summer of one of her water tenders on a forest service road with a wall of flames just behind it. Very Mad Max-y.
edit: Oh, I forgot to mention the part I was excited about. She visited us 2 weeks ago and said she caught some crackhead siphoning fuel out of her truck and walked up to him with a rifle aimed at his head. Supposedly she told him "You can mow my fucking lawn if you need 30 bucks, but you're going to die here if I catch you stealing from me again". I gave her a ration of shit for grabbing a .22 and told her she needs a 12g, but that story made me all warm and fuzzy. Both my sisters are fucking badasses.
