campylobacter: Geek Sexy Daniel (geek-sexy)
[personal profile] campylobacter
Last year while I was writing "Bookends", I asked [livejournal.com profile] cleothemuse  "What kind of car does Daniel drive?" She listed several options: the Land Rover he rented in Cairo, a Jeep, or Jack's truck, which Jack might've left when he moved to DC. I chose Jack's truck. I was just over at [livejournal.com profile] lc59's Colour Meme, and she's given Vala a 1965 Mustang Shelby Fastback.

So canonically, what kind of vehicles do Jack O'Neill, Samantha Carter, Cameron Mitchell, and Daniel Jackson drive?

Do Teal'c and Vala drive cars?


[Michael Shanks at Fan Odyssey Culver City, California, 5-8 June, 2003]
Audience Member: "What kind of car does Daniel drive?"

Michael Shanks: "That's a very interesting question. In fact that was brought up as background on the two-parter that we're doing, "Heroes". We've never seen Daniel in a vehicle except for maybe a taxi cab or getting dropped off by a military car or the Egypt thing (in "The Curse"), but we also thought that that would be a great thing to fill in because we've already seen what kind of car the others drive. And the type of car he drives sort of shows where his mind set is. He drives... he would drive... something circa 1940's, an old clunker, you know not anything new, so they found an old revamped 1950's military vehicle because he's not a new car or motorcycle type, but more a military vehicle type. (Like the Land Rover? The audience refers to the one in "The Curse".) Yeah, like that."

Restored Jeepsters from the same era, including a 1950s Jeep Wagoneer with contrasting panels, and a plain 1956 Willys Jeep:

I can also imagine him at one point driving a used, high-maintenance, Euro-nerd clunker such as a 1999 Peugeot 306 Meridian.
