I hate the Dodgers. I despise everything about the organization (thanx mainly to Rick Monday in 1981). But I respected Tommy. He clearly did bleed Dodger blue. It's hard to think of the Dodgers without thinking of Tommy.

Most cars are not celebrities, unless you're talking about Lightning McQueen, Chick Hicks, Doc Hudson, Sally Carrera or KITT, the talking car in the 1982-85 Knight Rider TV series. And, by amazing coincidence, an actor who appeared in two episodes of Knight Rider has died. He was a person, though, not the car.
Richman appeared in 31 episodes of Defenders Of The Earth, 30 episodes of Cain's Hundred, 29 episodes of Dynasty, 28 episodes of Santa Barbara, 21 episodes of Longstreet and multiple episodes of Hotel, Vega$, Fantasy Island, Knight Rider, Hart To Hart, The FBI, Galactica 1980 and Beverly Hills 90210.
