BIGFOOT #6, built in the fall of 1986, was featured in the movie "Police Academy 6"; and set a record in 1987 by jumping over 13 cars at a Jamboree event in Indianapolis, Indiana. In 1992 and 1993, the truck toured extensively in England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Iceland and other countries. The 1993 tour of the UK was a true "iron man" marathon. Driver Jim Greco put the truck through 160 performances in 164 days. In 1994 the truck toured Thailand. It was then sold to an English promoter, and was touring under a different name.
