I think in general it's whoever had the yield sign in such a situation that is at fault...no matter who left first etc. I have never seen a stop with multiple yield signs that would be very confusing. If he had a yield sign and didn't yield, then he is at fault, if you had it and ended up getting run off the road, well, you should have yielded.

If it was 2 stop signs, neither saying yield, then again, it's generally the responsibility of the smaller/more maneuverable vehicle to avoid the larger one. A truck, even empty, take far more time to brake or accelerate then a smaller car.

It does not sound good for you in any instance unless the truck had a yield sign and you did not, and even then, it really is arguable since the truck takes longer to get going/stop and it's hard to prove that when he started moving you were already at the stop sign, or past it.

Video might help, but I don't think physics are going to win you anything in this case.
