Default P38 airplane-why isn't this configuration used anymore?

following up a thread on the P38 Lockheed.

There was an Aussi aerial agriculture design made by a company
Transavia (subsiduary of Transfield I think) called the "Airtruck"
great little crop duster as you could back the filler right up to the
rear hoper. Piper and Cessna were just too big to compete with
particularly with their Turbine models.


Wasn't the air truck used in the escape finale of one of the "Mad Max"
series of post apocalypse movies?
