Here is a reddit post by a marshal riding in one of the trucks. It includes an update with a link to a response (on Twitter, sorry) from the owner and the marshal's response to it.

[–] Podunk@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

new orleans. It took less effort to find out than it took you to link to wikipedia in your comment.
