I wonder if the sponsorship prohibits their playing "Days of Thunder"...

"That old Ford sure was fast on the draw..."

I also have to wonder how many Brooks and Dunn fans will buy a Toyota because of the sponsorship. I must say I don't understand this type of marketing.

Hey let's face it.......Brooks and Dunn need to do something to get their names back out there. They aren't exactly Alan Jackson, you know. Alan Jackson and Ford trucks-that was a stellar matchup!
