- The truck can't talk, so the reason he possessed Gus was so he could talk and walk, meaning that Gus in almost the entire episode was Truckenstein himself.
- When the episode was aired and around when it was aired (2008) Monstertruck rally's were enormously popular. Truckenstein was probably created to catch on the hype.
