Yes
By the way, this vehicle was designed so that its specific cargo could be loaded in a highly unorthodox manner.

I thought I'd seen it somewhere before! That was the easy part. Now, to remember which film it appeared in... ?! I guess the movie was a set-in-the-future sci-fi flic with this being some kind of fuel truck?

I agree that it looks like something from a Mad Max film, but nope.

"The "Mongo" heist truck from Fast Five, built to steal exotic cars off a speeding train in the Fast & Furious movie franchise. That's an old Oshkosh HEMTT military truck cab with an exterior roll cage, and power is courtesy of a GM RamJet 502-cubic-inch big-block V8 making about 500 horsepower"

That's it. Locked for you to name the builder.
