When the Plaid Flex pulls into your city, expect the townspeople to get pretty excited. Not only will we be rolling with the hottest Ford Flex that has ever graced the American highway system, but we'll also arrive with goodies.

Be on the lookout for official Plaid tour t-shirts, buttons and air fresheners that will make your cubicle (or car) smell like cupcakes and donuts. That's how we roll.

33 days till the Plaid hits the pavement!

Matt completed the design work for this year's tour t-shirts. Made with 100% awesomeness. And they're orange, for your safety.

Want one? You'll need to be at one of our scheduled tour stops along the way - or if you're a blogger, just write an awesome post about the PlaidNation tour. (We've been known to trade t-shirt love for blog love.)

The new tour shirts are here! We're stoked. They look awesome. If you invite us to visit your place while on tour, you'll be getting one of these. We're also giving them free to the first five people who sign up for our TweetUps, in each market.

RJ says that you're going to look totally hot in these tees. So even if you don't live or work on the west coast, you may want to book airfare now and meet us in the city of your choice. T-shirts worthy of your travel. Only on the Plaid Summer Tour.

Our second tour shirt for the '08 tour is complete. Design was done by David (the intern.) We'll be sending these off for production later today.

These are sooo going to rock the west coast, that we'll probably cause a quake, and the entire left side of our country will break off and float into the Pacific, to create our own PlaidNation.

Nice work, David (the intern)!!

Our new pre-tour Plaid tour shirts have arrived. They were designed by coworker Matt, who also designed the van graphics.

Personally, I have trouble pulling off seafoam green. But Matt says it's the next big thing. And the people that control those things talk to Matt, so he would know.

Some girls have indicated that the shirt makes their boobs look bigger. I swear I'm not making this up and that we've actually received those comments. We make no guarantee to this effect whatsoever. They're only t-shirts, and possess no magic powers that we are aware of.

We'll have these shirts at Tweet-ups while on tour (free to the first registrants of each meet-up), and for sale on the tour dashboard, soon.

Matt's designed the first 2008 Plaid tour shirt! They've been ordered, the first shirts ship in the next couple of weeks. (So technically, this is a pre-tour tour shirt.)

No word on distribution yet - but I imagine that it will involve a t-shirt cannon, and Ryan on the roof of the van. Or, we could just use the internet.
