As imdb says "The combine harvester that causes the 'big Aussie tank' to run off the road is hundreds of miles from the nearest corn fields, and six months away from harvest time." - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082464/trivia?tab=gf&item=gf0854390 . Can't get better pictures than these: Also puzzling that the 'big Aussie tank' (= the blue Monaro with FX 4095 plates) avoids the combine by going up the bank on left of combine in main - as 2nd thumb - then crashes down the hillside to the right beyond where the bloke is in 4th thumb, so would have had to turn 90 degrees immediately after clearing the back of the combine. -- Last edit: 2013-03-18 21:34:20
