Awesome work! Classic movie! I love the Terminator series.
I especially remember how that line is echoed in the first two films;
Kyle: Come with me if you want to live!
T-800: Come with me if you want to live.

Actually , Kyle`s Version in T1, T:SCC and Salvation is " Come with me if you wanna live " .

That is true. I had forgotten that Kyle says "wanna" while the Terminator says "want to".

Yep. All the way to the top. Even though its been more than two decades now, the 80s has left quite a mark on the world as we know it. A mark and scent which remains fresh to this very day.

I'll give you my right hand if you call tell me what make and model his shotgun and trench coat are.
Nevermind. I can't resist. His shotgun is an Ithaca 37 and his trench coat is a Vietnam War-era US officer's rain coat. I know this because I have one just like it.
Michael Biehn actually used two different Ithaca 37s. One was a functional prop and the other was what they call a "dummy gun" -- basically a rubber stunt double (so the main prop won't get broken). The prop guys must not have been paying attention because you can tell they're different. The Ithaca Reese has most of the time is an 8-shot version with a 20" barrel. He only cuts off the stock to make it more compact so he can conceal it. In Tech Noir, when he ducks behind the counter, you can see that he has a different shotgun. Same make. Same model. Different version. It's a 5-shot version with either an 18.5" or 20" barrel (not precisely sure). You can tell by the length of the magazine tube.
This also happens in Killer Klowns from Outer Space as well as numerous other films. Only obsessive freaks like me would care or even notice.
