Toyota Tundra Towing the Space Shuttle Endeavour
I watched this after reading your blog post and thought it was not only a clever piece of marketing done…
Toyota will become part of the Space Shuttle Endeavour‘s history. How? Glad you asked.
The Tundra Endeavour
On October 13, the Tundra will tow the 300,000 pound (150 ton) historic space shuttle on its final journey to the California Science Center, near downtown LA, where the shuttle will go on permanent display.
You can follow the journey and take part in the Tweet Drive to raise money for the Endeavour’s new home. The Tundra Endeavour site will feature a series of webisodes. The first episode, “The Tundra Endeavour – The Challenge” featured below.
So, if you live near LA, you just might see the Tundra pulling a Space Shuttle down the 405.
Let me know if you plan to watch this!
