Let's say your company builds sheds, and you want to show that your sheds are pretty darned sturdy.
One eye-catching option: Perch a big dump truck on top of one of them.
Spencer Brown, owner of The Original Shed and Garage Co., did just that 16 years ago - and chances are good you've seen his shed-sitting truck along South Kino Parkway. It's near the company's headquarters at 3424 S. Campbell Ave.
"That truck is still sitting on the same building I originally put it on," said Brown, whose company formerly was known as Tuff Shed. "The idea was just to draw attention and show that our sheds are strong. It brings us some business. People remember it because it's kind of an oddity.
"If customers are looking for us, we just say that we're the guys with the truck along Kino."

Brown said workers used a crane to hoist the old Chevrolet truck to its new home more than 8 feet off the ground.
It's been going nowhere fast ever since.
