About Snowman[]
"Snowman" is the CB handle of Cledus Snow, a Georgia truck driver. He is married to Waynette (played by Linda McClure). His sometimes partner is Bandit, Bo Darville.
When Big Enos Burdette and his son Little Enos make a bet with Bandit, he talks Snowman into helping him win. Snowman drives the Kenworth to Texarkana to pick up the beer while Bandit runs blocker in the Trans-Am. Snowman brings his dog Fred along for the ride. He uses a calculator to figure their time remaining. Nearing their destination being pursued by many cops, Bandit is about to give up when Snowman takes charge, plowing through a roadblock and winning the bet.
Three years later, he again takes the wheel of the truck to haul Charlotte the elephant from Miami to Dallas.
