What the hell? Pink tow trucks?

If your car breaks down on the road and a shockingly un-masculine, pink AAA Motor Club tow truck pulls up, don’t worry, a burly dude in a safety vest and dirt under his fingernails is still going to step out of the cab to give you a hand with your vehicle.

It’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so in collaboration with the
American Cancer Society, AAA decided to paint two of its tow trucks pink to show support to women fighting the disease. The trucks have been on the road since Monday.

Response to the tow trucks has been positive, if not a little eye brow raising.
“Some people find it a little surprising” said AAA’s Beth Mosher when asked about reaction to the new colored tow trucks. “But it’s been good.”

Mosher says the two trucks will be making an appearance Saturday, October 20 from 8-12 at Montrose Harbor for people to check out the trucks in person.
