The Giant Idaho Potato Truck Is Coming to Central New York -- Here's What to Know

It's not every day you see a 4-ton potato cruising down the highway, but the legendary Big Idaho Potato Truck is back on tour, and Central New Yorkers are in for a super-sized treat.

This oversized spud on wheels tips the scale at a whopping 44,320 lbs. That's the same as about 21,562 regular potatoes. And while no, it's technically not real...it sure looks like it would make a good fry.

Besides the perfect photo op, the Big Idaho Potato Truck Tour is part roadside attraction-part charitable mission.

Every stop on the tour supports a local cause through its "A Big Helping" initiative. When the truck rolls into Central New York on June 17, it'll partner with a local charity, collecting signatures from visitors and turning each one into a $1 donation (up to $500).

So yes, you can snap a selfie with a giant tater and help a local charity. Win-win. You can also score swag like tater tots and temporary tattoos.

Because let's be real, how many chances do you get to stand next to a 4-ton potato?
