Don't have any other shots of Biff's truck. But I was thinking the same things, was wondering where the 3 vents were, and the truck does look a bit different. I guess you guys must be right with the Ford Courier. I have never seen a pic of a Courier.

Yep. Definitely a Courier. My cuz has one about that year. The real tell-tale sign is the fact that the back of the cab doesn't have that concaved shape from the side.

The mars attacks one should be a 76 or 77. ... 4 lights, big bumper. 75 was the last year for the skinny front bumper....

Yes, that's a Dorf Courier. I say that because my buddy had one for a while. A previous owner had changed the letters on the front of the hood from FORD to DORF. It was always known as Dorf.

Here is a couple of screen shots from the LUV I caught on The Weather Channel on Storm Stories Wed. night. I think they were fleeing from a wildfire and could not get the truck started and they were pushing it. Has to be a '78 - '80 LUV. It was funny, was just talking to my girlfriend about the LUVs in movies, she went out to watch Storm Stories since she likes watching the show, and I couldn't believe it when I saw the LUV drive across the screen ! So I set Tivo to tape the 11pm airing so I could grab pics. :)

Here are a few:

Armed and Dangerous: LUV gets blown up (has a big bozo Ice Cream Cone bed on the back - utility bed)

(Movie Name Here) - Jim Carrey is driving one as a teen movie where he gets bitten by a sexxy chic. I think it is the same one as above that gets blown up.

Yes the truck that Biff had in Back To The Future 3 is indeed a Ford Courier, Made by Mazda for those of you who didn't know

Here is a couple of pics of the LUV in The Great Outdoors. It Must be a '72 -'77. I have to re-tape The Woman In Red and look again at that scene you guys mentioned. I forgot to look for that rain scene. It is kinda hard to tell, but I swear in Goodfellas when Henry is driving around and the helicopter is following him that you can see a LUV driving behind him ? Also I am curious as to if there is a LUV in The Goonies where the Fratellies are driving in their 4x4 and they get into the middle of that truck race. It is really hard to see from the distance in the beginning of the clip.

well as some people know i'm still in school and right now i'm in spanish1, well we were watching some movie about a latino girls quince (15 year old party, supposed to signify that she's an adult in latin culture) so i'm watching the movie right, well the class before us was watching it and got further in the movie than we were, well our teacher rewinds the movie and while she's rewinding it, of all trucks there's a 81-82 orange chevy luv starring at the camera... but it was in the picture for about 2 seconds so i didn't really get a good look at it.

Here is the pics from Armed And Dangerous. This LUV looks like it is between a '72 - '75 based on the front bumper is the old style. The first pic is before the back got blown off, the second pic is during the explosion. Doesn't this qualify as LUV abuse ?! 8O

Could the Jim Carrey movie be "Once Bitten" ? That is from 1985, so definitely more apt to have a LUV in the film than the newer Jim Carrey flicks.
