I hate to rain on your parade, but I'm not sure Lunchables Nachos are the best source for these things.

Watch the latest trailer. You see him in truck mode starting to transform. He's big, but he's not that big.

Maybe he switches between sizes throughout the film, a la the TF's in the G1 cartoon.

Or maybe the production crew used parts from 2 semi's to build the truck itself.

No, it doesn't. Otherwise it would take up two lanes on the highway and wouldn't fit through overpasses.

So, what you're saying is, essentially, that Prime's alt.mode is two semis in length? I don't believe it, largely because of that TFW2005 photograph showing Optimus, Bumblebee, Ratchet, Ironhide, Jazz, Barricade and Starscream on the runway. Optimus looks a normal size compared to the other vehicles.
