These actual cars and trucks used in the film were on display from Tuesday June 23 until Sunday June 28, 2009 and it was spectacular to see them in person. This collection of images were photographed on June 23 and 25, 2009.

The future looks uncertain for Ironhide to return in Transformers 3 in this vehicle mode, as General Motors announced they were ceasing production of his truck's model just weeks before Revenge of the Fallen opened in cinemas at the end of June 2009.
