Fresh from a tour overseas, a stint on an oil rig and a commercial fishing boat before that, Nick Barrett has been battling a case of wanderlust his entire life. When he's given the opportunity to settle down in a permanent home, he naturally high-tails it out of town, gunning all 450 horsepower in his 1970 Chevelle in the process. On the road, he meets Leah Lane, a sexy hitchhiker who gives him a run for his money. Will the two of them find what it is that they're looking for or run out of road in the meantime?
