As Michael Bay remembers, the Armadillo-jumping-across-a-canyon scene was a big debate he had with the studio. The scene was complicated and expensive, but Bay felt it would work great with the younger audience and was short and energetic enough to grab the attention of adult audience members, as well. Jerry Bruckheimer had faith in Bay's ability to read his audience, and he supported the scene staying in. The producer doesn't always understand where Bay is coming from with some of his movies or scenes, but he fully believes in Bay being able to win over a mass audience. That same scene incorporates several different film making techniques like models, green screen, and an actual stuntman hanging from underneath the Armadillo. Bay notes the miniature Armadillo cost roughly $150,000 and currently sits in his office. He also says not to tell Disney. They've probably heard by now, anyway.
