The Road Warrior Tour Truck

Guess they are going for an edgier branding at Taylor Made these days...

Very poor taste at this time.

If I had a relative on overseas duty and this came on my screen!

Despite its tough looks, It probably couldn't withstand the smallest of improvised explosive devices.

Poor taste? Trying too hard maybe, but how is this an insult to the troops? I would think not having enough equipment would be more of a concern to them than the Taylor Made truck.

I heard Dick Cheney has an identical vehicle - minus the lettering - for use when he is being driven around DC?

Is that box on the back of the truck labeled as "ammo" where the hard to find Taylor Made Penta golf balls are hidden?

That's quite the rig. The "cow catcher" on the front of the tractor is pretty common, especially if you hit a deer ,or worse, a moose!! The hood and bumper are fiberglass, so it would save about $10k in damage. Never ever seen a catcher that extended over the hood, nor around the top of the sleeper - must be some high flying deer around. ......... Santa??????! :-)

Pretty expensive custom tractor and trailer though, probably not much change out of $300k.

Not very friendly trucks. :( Are they going to war against somebody? Anyway I am not sure that such product demonstration is the best way convince and convert us to TaylorMade...

As we know products don't people do...
