That being said, Tundra sticks out like a sore thumb everywhere it goes. Apparently the Japanese think what Americans want in a truck is a bulbous, misshapen monstrosity.
To Space Shuttle fans, this is a bittersweet moment. To normal citizens, this is amazing. To Toyota, this is nothing but a once-in-a-lifetime marketing chance.

Space Shuttle Endeavour is now positioned at the bridge and is sitting on Toyota's trailers. This is the first of two tows the Tundra will do.

For giggles, the Tundra can't stop and restart, if it does, it'll snap.

The Toyota Tundra has completed the first of two tows of Space Shuttle Endeavour. They had to shut down 405 so people traveling 75 mph wouldn't try to stop to look at the towering Space Shuttle Endeavour as it went over the bridge.

That blue Tundra wasn't actually the towing Tundra. That was the parade Tundra.

The towing Tundra had even more Toyota stuff on it.

Endeavour is still traveling to the California Science Center. While we're waiting for her to arrive, here are the pictures from where we left off, to now.

Friday:

Friday afternoon: Toyota Tundra's 1st tow:

We have very few pictures of the Tundra actually towing Endeavour because Toyota wanted live coverage to stop while they towed Endeavour.
Dollies being hooked up.












Tundra towing pictures start now:

My computer crashed when I had about 50 pictures from Saturday loaded up, so I'm too lazy to post them all up right now.

Space Shuttle Endeavour just arrived at the California Science Center, but has not yet pulled into the hangar.
