Probably because it doesn't exist.
I think that Truck Gardens are a US thing, with the British having a completely different name for them.
Then, if you automatically translate Truck to Lorry, Truck Garden becomes Lorry Garden, which is a term that doesn't seem to exist.
Do a Wikipedia search on Truck Garden and Lorry Garden to see the differences.
The same sort of thing may be to automatically change Trunk to Boot and Hood to Bonnet. Then we'd get Steamer Boots, Boxing Boots and Little Red Riding Bonnet.
