It suddenly occurs to me that (as someone too young to have seen the movie until years after it came out) I know her truck looked old, but I’m not sure how much older it was supposed to be compared to the present-day setting.

Yeah I can’t comment of the quality of vehicles back in the day, but that truck was pretty beat up, paint was faded and mildly rusty. I wonder if her working at the Cetacean Institute exposed her vehicle to salt water more than the average car in the Bay area?
