Mothers lock up your daughters because on Cinco de Mayo the Fox Street Fleet set sail on its maiden voyage and will likely be bringing some good ol' fashion debauchery to a town near you in the months ahead. The Fox Street Fleet includes two state-of-the-art, custom wrapped vehicles loaded with top-shelf amenities suitable for even the most discerning of rock stars. The Street Fleet's pièce de résistance is a 40-foot tour bus packed with a Rockford Fosgate (RF) sound system boasting two RF POWER series amps, two RF POWER T1 15" subwoofers and four Type RF components. This lethal combination delivers a mind-numbing 2,200 watts of brute force, making it much more likely that you'll hear us waaay before you see us. Keep an eye out - and ear open - for this 40-foot monster because it's currently trekking across North America as the key ingredient to the first-ever Fox Land, Air & Sea Tour (LAST). LAST will bring Fox's stable of world-class athletes to local markets throughout the U.S. and Canada in an effort to grow action sports and increase brand awareness for Fox and its tour partners by executing exciting demos, music and lifestyle events. The Fox tour bus will serve as a home base for VIPs, athletes, friends and fans when LAST hits the Summer X Games, Vans Warped Tour and several prime stops along the inaugural Dew Action Sports Tour, as well as numerous Supercross Races and other noteworthy grassroots events.
For all you Southern Californians, Fox's pimped-out Urban Assault Vehicle will be making the rounds from San Diego to Los Angeles all year. A virtual party on wheels, it's the second half of the Street Fleet and it will hit skateparks, beaches, retailers and da club on the regular to host impromptu events, product giveaways, demos, autograph signings and on and on. Fox's Urban Assault Vehicle features a 007-style telescoping projector for covert on-the-go movie premiers, a plush interior and full DJ set up with a sound system that hammers.
With the Fox Street Fleet on the road fully stocked with liquid courage provided by our good friends at Red Bull, Red Stripe and Smart Water, you'd better buckle up because it's gonna be a loud, bumpy, crazy ride!
And a special thanks goes out to our bros at Haro Bikes who generously dontated five bikes to support the cause.
