Ep2.01 has this which is supposed to be the same one in a brief early scene

It may be the same one; the one in 2.01 was clearly all blue at some point and there's red showing up under the faded paint. It's possible that the truck was kept by the production company (episode was most likely filmed in September-October 1996)
