looking at the pix in the mega post it looks from the depth of the quary and the orientation of the truck on explosion that it may be a different truck that was destroyed. Maybe it is possible that they air bag landed the truck, and then blew up another with white spoke wheels? Seems like a lot of work for an at the time cheap truck for a high budget ( Bill Murray)movie though.

My avatar is my old truck in 1980-82. I miss her dearly. She died from a dead water pump and florida rust after a colorado flood saturated the cab with clay. What a loss.
