More than a dozen Puget-Sound area Ford businesses are joining the popular local food truck movement by hosting innovative events that will have local food trucks compete in a head-to-head taste test while Ford vehicles challenge their rivals through competitive test drives.
The Ford Food Truck Challenge tour wraps up in Portland this week and will head into Seattle next week, providing fans a unique opportunity to eat, drive and vote at local Ford dealerships and popular summer festivals. Participants are encouraged to take the Ford Food Truck Challenge by taste-testing food from the food trucks, test-driving Ford vehicles against the competition, and submitting their vote for BEST BITE and BEST RIDE. The winning food truck receives a cash grand prize, and participants are entered to win daily giveaways.
