No they didn't.
Pause the VCR just as the truck goes ove rthe cliff. It was a beater with no engine that they pushed over the cliff.

I'll have to watch that movie again sometime I guess. It still could have been a decent parts truck though. I don't know why they couldn't have used a Toyota instead.

They couldn't use Toyota because it would have still been drivable afterwords and would have wrecked the shot! HaHa

Yeah, I noticed that quite a while ago. My wife hates watching movies with me on video...I love to find mistakes and stuff like that.
I'll ruin Smokey and the Bandit if you watch it with me.
