Set in a world populated entirely by anthropomorphic talking cars and other vehicles, it follows an overconfident, conceited rookie race car named Lightning McQueen (Wilson) who, on his way to the biggest race of his life, discovers in the rundown town of Radiator Springs when he gets stranded, where he learns humility ...

Characterization. Mater's color was originally baby blue as shown in a flashback when he was young; however, over the years he has rusted into a patchwork light brown/orange color with some of the blue still showing through.

When light hits them this refracts. And reflects the light giving the paint a color changing. Effect it's not actually that common now but it was a popular modification.

Mater – 1951 Chevrolet boom truck He's a little rusty but it's clear he's modeled after both the 1951 International Harvester tow truck and 1951 Chevrolet boom truck (same car).

The message in "Cars" is simplicity itself: Life was better in the old days, when it revolved around small towns where everybody knew each other, and around small highways like Route 66, where you made new friends, sometimes even between Flagstaff and Winona.

It's about the special experiences we give up for the sake of convenience. In the film, Sally Carrera describes how the small town of Radiator Springs thrived in the era of Route 66, prior to the construction of Intertstate 40, which bypassed the town entirely to save ten minutes of travel.

Personality. Mater speaks with a somewhat high-pitched thick rural Southern accent, has a whistle-dry lisp to his voice, and frequently misspells words. He is very optimistic and often at times forgetful. He has the biggest heart and is super sweet to a fault.

Mater is the rustiest, trustiest tow truck in Radiator Springs. He loves tractor tippin', helping out stranded cars, and most of all, hanging out with his best friend, Lightning McQueen. Mater is great at driving backwards, because he doesn't need to know where he's going as long as he knows where he's been.

In Cars (2006), the main character Lightning McQueen learns an important lesson about humility and slowing down and enjoying life accompanied by great music, characters and story.

Much of the history of the movie "Cars" was inspired by memories of Angel Delgadillo, a road character and owner of a "Barber Shop" in Seligman, Arizona, who welcomed and served thousands of travelers during the heyday of the mythical route.

His values change from self-love, winning, popularity, and fame to friends, to respecting others, and leading by example. Important leadership qualities Lightning McQueen acquired throughout this movie include: INTEGRITY, SPORTSMANSHIP, HUMILITY, PATIENCE, TOLERANCE, GRATITUDE, LISTENING SKILLS, and HUMOR.

Lightning, just about to win the race, sees what's happened and realizes helping The King is more important than winning the race. In a lovely Climactic Moment, he slams on the brakes, just before the finish line, allowing Chick to win.
