Trivia[]

  • Something worth noting is that this likely the only short part of the Cars Toons series to not have a canon scene in Radiator Springs.
  • Materdor is a pun on "Matador". However, the proper name could possibly exist in the Cars world, with people calling Mater, El Materdor.
  • The bulldozers are car versions of bulls. Also, Frank resembles a bull, but is a combine harvester, not a bulldozer. In the first film, Lightning McQueen says that he is a race car, not a bulldozer, mentioning about not removing things. This creates inconsistencies regarding the roles of Bulldozers in the Cars series.
    • In addition, the bulldozers make the exact same sound effects as Frank.
  • Lightning's scream when he noticed that his paint job is red is exactly the same as the one he made when he got zapped in Rescue Squad Mater.
  • After Mater is supposedly defeated by the bulldozers, one of the cars in the audience making the crying sound heard is the exact same ones Baby Kate makes from the popular and long-running PBS TV series, Arthur.
