How can I "locally" overwrite this by "truncate" in R mode? So whenever an .R file is open, it should wrap lines with the option "truncate" rather than "word wrap".

ess-mode-hook (or R-mode-hook) is your friend.  I have explained it at length in slightly different context on this mailing list, just a few weeks ago.
