Other than being a quite mediocre game, Trucks seems to really mess with the internal renderer of Dosbox. In short, the most common error it's a weird doubling of the width, and it's extremely pronounced when "aspect" is set to false (when set to true, it roughly doubles the whole image). But there are a lot of corner cases, so the best way I found to show them was a spreadsheet file. Let's just say that the errors range from a weird aspect ratio to not being able to take a screenshot at all.

Here's a brief explanation for the labels:
Video Output when Aspect Ratio set to true: the image shown by the program window, under Mac Os X (hence the weird yellow/green color cast), with the config parameter "aspect" set to true.
DosBox internal screenshot, Video Output when Aspect Ratio set to false: basically when the aspect flag is set to false, the video output matches the internal screenshot of DosBox. I'm showing just the dosbox screenshots. They matches the screenshots taken while aspect is set to true, by the way.
correct resolution, correct aspect ratio: basically the output is the same as what's shown from the application.
scales to 640x480, correct / wrong aspect ratio: the image shown differs from what the game says, it keeps a 4:3 ratio or not.
weird interlacing: when aspect is set to true, 640x350 and 640x400 show uneven black lines.
flickering during intro: the menu shows no error, but the initial 3d intro flickers a bit.
Application Restart: if the application is quit when resolution is set to640x480 or 800x600 and dosbox is restarted, then the next time the game is started in 640x480 and 800x600 mode it will show for those the right resolution and aspect ratio, whatever "aspect" is set to.
During this time, getting a 800x600 screenshot works correctly.
If then I change the resolution back to less than 640x480 and go back , it shows again the old behaviour.
Going over 800x600 always makes the application crash with a "Not enough memory for ZBuffer !!!" error.
Here's my settings file, by the way. not too many changes from stock config except the aspect ratio settings.
Yeah, I know. Too much free times on my hands.
