Thank You, I'll Pass
Gil has a speaking role in the comic Thank You, I'll Pass.

Gil then offers to transport Hicks, and Chick spitefully agrees, not realizing that he will be riding alongside loads of toxic waste.

- Industrial waste recycling might be a messy gig for some, but no load is too big or too toxic for Gil. It's the jokes Gil tells at the truck stop that he recycles most of all. The other truckers politely nod and chuckle as Gil tells the same old one liners time and time again.
