Truck-o-Saurus is a truck/dinosaur that first appeared in
Bart the Daredevil. It was created by
Professor Frink, as referenced in
The Simpsons: Hit and Run (although in the episode Leo G. Clark identifies himself as the owner, inventor and operator of Truk-o-Saurus). It is 20 tons and four stories of car-crunching, fire-breathing, prehistoric insanity. Truck-o-Saurus starred in a movie called
Truck-o-Saurus: The Movie, which starred
Marlon Brando as John Truck-o-Saurus. Brando's voice was impersonated. Truck-o-Saurus was inspired by the real life robotic dinosaur,
Robosaurus. It ended up in
The Auto Graveyard, where it fell into the hands of
Bart Simpson, who accidentally turned it on, causing it to run amok in
Springfield. It walked into
Springfield Harbor and was never seen again.
