Holy shit you have just blown my mind, maniac. It makes perfect sense. I think farm boy represents humanity (ie those 'boys' who run a society built around agriculture aka farms). Icarus saved some flying power (or 'a cheesecake') to share with the world but notice he keeps most of it for himself, a parallel of how even with technological progress there will always be a vast gap between the rich minority and the poor majority, who will see nothing of the fruits of progress.
I also think the bit about the truck is really about transhumanism.
