Would you buy a vibrator from a sex toy truck?

Here in Portland, we’re no strangers to food trucks (have you experienced the glory that is Potato Champion?!), but this is something new: a truck that promotes vibrators.

For a few days in July, a Trojan “Good Vibrations” truck parked itself in various spots in Manhattan and Brooklyn, drawing in passersby and engaging them in discussion about masturbation and sex toys.

Trojan’s first order of business was to promote its new vibrator to young people, and they did so by having folks take a “What’s Your Vibe” quiz on an iPad, and by holding a Facebook check-in raffle for a free vibrator. They also gave out condoms and disposable vibrating cock rings.

Although this was a short-lived event based on blatant product promotion, it brings up a pivotal question: what if a sex-toy-peddling truck popped up on the streets of Portland? Would you buy a toy from it? Which food cart pod would it most thrive in? And would the world explode with awesomeness if this truck were set up next to the place selling fried pies?
