#6 - KITT From The Knight Rider\r
KITT is an acronym for both Knight Industries Two Thousand and Knight Industries Three Thousand. In both instances, it is the artificially intelligent electronic computer component in the body of a highly advanced robotic car. The car appears in the adventure TVKnight Rider. While KITT was first installed in a mainframe computer used by the U.S. government, the creator, Wilton Knight thought it would be better for the intelligence to be used in the Foundations crime fighting crusade and the system was installed in a vehicle instead of a simple computer. Essentially KITT was an advanced supercomputer on wheels, and that is what puts “him” on our list of personified vehicles. \r
