I can't see where that would allow the remaining rear wheel to drive the truck. Without the left wheel, the differential will just spin the bare axle. Maybe, it's under tow, has a locker, or 4x4 ...

I once seen a guy driving in a S10 with the drivers side front wheel off and it was riding on a floor jack. It was secured with ratchet straps and his buddy was sitting on the hood steering the jack by the handle.

In 1968 I went through Wheel Vehicle Training School in the ARMY. One thing they covered was that with a M151A1 (Jeep) if you lost a rear wheel you could shove a log into the independant suspension and could drive it on a limited basis. I don't remember if it was from the limited slip or the front wheel drive. ????
