This episode "Custom Made Killer" is one of my favourite Knight Rider episodes. And I'm not really sure why as it seems a normal average everyday episode where nothing majorly essential happens. Like it's not an episode that sees KITT damaged or gets a new upgrade. Or sees the debut of a new cast member. Or an episode with either Stephanie Mason, KARR or Garthe Knight & Goliath. Yet this is an episode I choose if I just wanna chill out and put on a Knight Rider episode.

Michael was an official representative for The Foundation For Law and Government. They had powerful friends in law enforcement who love how they operated above the law to get the criminals they couldn't. Devon Miles knew how to grease the right political wheels to keep the Foundation strong. As for guns when you think you're going to take someone down with your crazy car then you forget about that sort of thing. Then there's the matter of the cassette tape. In the 80's that was the most common format and KITT needed to be compatible with everyone else. It's a little known fact that he had CD and USB flash drive capability ahead of his time.

@kitt28
