Settpistol ◊ 2007-04-07 07:48	the movie was made in '86. '89 is out of the question.
antp ◊ 2007-04-07 15:22	Movie was released in 1989, did they really made it three years earlier? Anyway this truck was probably not brand new...

By the mid 80's square fender turn signals became optional, along with Hadley square air horns and aero-style roof marker lights. http://www.timstrucks.com/359_36_pntwhls.jpg
