I had seen Road Warrior for many years before I ever saw MadMax, and it surprised me how different the first move was from the sequel.

The first movie was very low budget.

We loved it in college because a couple of us had Kawasaki KZ 650s & 750 motorcycles.

Yeah, the first one was supposed to be a society just starting to slip over the edge, and by the time of the “The Road Warrior” it was fully gone.

Yeah, and so far on this thread, everyone is referencing "The Road Warrior". "Mad Max" was a very different film, to be sure.
