Wink Goodyear...

An aircraft refueler truck which is a prototype of cargo trucks used by the US Air Force is using Goodyear tires. Studies have been made to let the leading tire and rubber company get the chance of giving the truck a set of "feet".

Cool The influence...

Good Year has been a world leader in rubber and tire manufacturing in almost all types of vehicles. This move by the US Air Force a good one because they knew that they are in a very good and well-established company. (The kind of company that they are looking in the first place)

This company hsa been a good performer over the years. With the partnership of the leading nation of the world, no wonder that the move is the best on both sides.
