Here is what you probably saw. My husband works for Monroe truck equipemtn out of Monroe Wisconsin. Paramount made a deal with GM to have these trucks modified. Monroe then modifies the truck for GM. They are now making more of the trucks and selling them. We have one sitting in our drivedway. If you want to see it go to www.monroetruck.com

Aren't GMC cars.... bulletproof?
Coz most of the GMCs here are bulletproof. So they're... kinda expensive. ahem.

And supposedly a "boom box" that isn't Soundwave. Maybe an iPod?

I'd say that's Ironhide, for the very reason Ray points out. Ironhide, in his second incarnation, was a Ford F-150, but since GM is apparently putting some money behind this, he's simply been made a Sierra.

So far I think that Saleen Mustang was the only Deceptacon car of any kind. The others consist of (from what I remember) a mine sweeper, a tank, a large helicopter, possibly that piece of construction equipment, and maybe a V-22.

Nah, remember...most of the Decepticons weren't cars...they were planes and destructive shit (guns, evil construction vehicles, evil boom boxes)...but the one Decepticon we've seen, yes, he is a modified Saleen Mustang via FoMoCo.

And those are bitchin' tires for someone who just really likes transformers. Not sure what they are, but, very spiffy.

Could it be that all Autobots are GM, vs. Decepticons Ford?

GM's got some kind of deal with the movie...Bumblebee's gonna be a Camaro, etc...they've donated GMT-900's for other purposes. It was seen near studio production location...makes sense to me.

Umm... I've seen cars before with autobot symbols on them that had nothing to do with the movie. Couldnt it be possible that this is just a guy with a modded truck who really likes transformers. I mean it seems like less of a leap to say that than than saying that they decided to use a black gmc truck instead of a red nissan van. Just a thought.

Oh man, I was going to go for the RamRash reference, but didn't want to mix the purity of Transformer geedom with the viral ickyness of european Dodge marekting tactics. For shame Wert, for shame.
