On Knight Rider, Michael Long was given a new face and a new name so that he could become the driver of the Knight Industries Two Thousand (KITT), a state-of-the-art sports car loaded with high-tech gadgets, plus an artificial intelligence that made it not just Michael's ride, but his partner, as well. But the evil Garthe Knight doesn't take too kindly to being replaced by Michael, and neither does the KITT prototype, KARR (Knight Automated Roving Robot). Both have a bone to pick with our heroes.
