auto-mode-alist can contain any function, so you could get away with
this:
(defun log-mode ()
;; You may want to call `fundamental-mode' or some other mode here
(setq truncate-lines t))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.log\\'" . log-mode))
If you want to make a proper mode:
(define-derived-mode log-mode fundamental-mode "Log"
;; The mode runs `log-mode-hook', so you could use that instead.
(setq truncate-lines t))
auto-mode-alist as above.
