coyote63000 ◊ 2004-12-16 17:30	C'est une depanneuse faite sur une base de Freightliner cabover 8664.Un modele beaucoup plus ancien que l'Argosy,puisque le dessin de cette cabine date de 1960.Dans le millieu des années 80,les phares ronds ont laissés la place à des modeles carrés,(comme chez Kenworth et Peterbilt),mais à part ça,il n'y a pas eu beaucoup de changements esthetiques.

Dwayne ◊ 2007-06-15 02:51	looks more like a FLA9664
G-MANN ◊ 2007-10-04 15:28	nubby wrote When it landed in the drainage canal, it looked like the tie-rod broke. I know, if you watch closely you can see the front axle being torn off. A big heavy truck like this could smash through the concrete barrier, but it wouldn't survive the 20-30 foot drop. A lot of these movie chases are pretty far-fetched, in real life a car or truck couldn't land after a big drop and still be drivable. -- Last edit: 2007-10-04 15:29:11
G-MANN ◊ 2007-10-04 15:30	This chase is my favourite bit in the movie, that truck was an excellent choice, it looks so menacing.

Neptune ◊ 2009-02-28 05:41	Catches fire/explodes doesn’t ? At the end of the chase after all the destruction ?
IHateFreedom ◊ 2009-03-31 02:30	Neptune - Yes, but the filmmakers were careful to show the explosion was caused by a sparking battery cable igniting a ruptured fuel tank.

Dead Reckoning ◊ 2010-07-11 04:54	If you look closely when it lands it looks like one of the windows and the front axle had broken but when it started to chase John again the window isnt broken a lot and the front axle is repaired

Reg1992 ◊ 2016-07-13 11:17	1985-88 Plymouth Caravelle on the right.
Baube ◊ 2016-07-13 12:28	no, 1987-1989 Pontiac Bonneville
Reg1992 ◊ 2016-07-13 12:37	In that case, maybe it's the same one I spotted here? /vehicle.php?id=21177
Baube ◊ 2016-07-13 13:13	could be, maybe they just used the same street in the opposite way ( or parked it in another street )
Reg1992 ◊ 2017-01-25 13:19	Picautos, along with one of the comments posted earlier, say the Freightliner is a 1987 Freightliner FLA 9664. http://www.picautos.com/21472-freightliner-fla-9664.html
Cledus Snow ◊ 2017-08-30 01:11	Major Tom wrote Yeah, good attention to detail there, but diesel doesn't go up like that of course, it's not volatile enough. It does when the truck is filled with with ultra-high-octane Hollywood brand atomic gasoline, though!
FireStar01 ◊ 2019-01-18 17:19	Freightliner FLT 9664. The cab has a wider split in between the front windows, one of the main identifying features of the White Freightliner WFT/Freightliner FLT series from the cabs inception to the switch to the FLA cab, which has the smaller split you see on most modern semi trucks these days. (Image property of Duncan Putman) In this picture of the Penske Racing Team trucks, from left to right, the first, second, and fourth trucks have the same windshield split as the Freightshaker in T-2. The third, however, has the smaller split which is, in reality, the only difference between the FLT and FLA series trucks. The bumper is not a good identifying mark of a truck unless it's an older Kenworth. That style of bumper was pretty much one of the standard option when the cab was introduced back when Freightliner was partnered with White back in the '70s. [Edit: Sorry about the size of the image, it was the only one I could find with a side-by-side of the two trucks.] -- Last edit: 2019-01-18 17:23:33 (kegare)
K dubble u ◊ 2021-11-20 05:05	There was actually 3 or 4 trucks used for making this one scene.
Bray7 ◊ 2022-03-15 16:14	1984 - 1987 model with the two-piece windshield. -- Last edit: 2023-03-27 19:30:52
opal ◊ 2022-07-16 14:15	Greenlight made a 1/43 release in August. Link to "scontent.fcnx3-1.fna.fbcdn.net"

opal ◊ 2023-05-24 18:16	Different models can be list separate: /vehicle.php?id=1790614 Some more shots of the FLA. Another one for stunt: Most likely another one, chrome parts not painted black, different small holes on the bumper, damage change...
WOFandCarlover ◊ 2026-02-03 15:33	Optimus Prime? Is that you?!
Bray7 ◊ 2026-09-27 02:16	Posting this here so other users and/or mods can use it as a reference on the unknown truck page. To keep it brief. Four stunt trucks were used, ALL are FLT 86 64 models, but the years vary. Refer to this image I made: (I spent the past few months going to junkyards and cross referencing dealer spec sheets for this.) For this page though. FLA was 1989+ only, the cab length is accurate, and 1986+ air intake. -> 1986+ Freightliner FLT 86 64 As for the stunt double's page. 1984+ air intake, but same specs otherwise. Or the mods can just delete it if they feel it's redundant: /vehicle_1790614-Freightliner-FLT-1984.html -> 1984+ Freightliner FLT 86 64 All it took was 22 years and a ton of mistake on my end to get this truck properly identified. Even funnier when the first comment from 2004 was dead accurate... -- Last edit: 2026-09-27 02:18:04
Bray7 ◊ 2026-09-27 02:21	And as a bonus. It seems like Greenlight just copied the old model name from this page, so the name on their diecast model is also inaccurate... -- Last edit: 2026-09-27 02:22:20
