{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"What if this was your office for the next year? Nope, THIS IS NUT A DRILL," Planters tweeted out from its Mr. Peanut account – the company’s iconic mascot. "I’m looking for a new team to travel with me in the @planterrsnutmobile bringing substance and snacks to fans all over the country."
The NUTmobiles measure 26 feet long and are designed to look like a giant peanut. Drivers who are hired for the role get to serve as a Planters brand ambassador, which the company calls a "Peanutter."
If chosen to operate the iconic vehicle, Planters will provide training on how to drive and park the 13,000 pound NUTmobile in addition to the company’s social media requirements, since drivers are responsible for capturing moments to share on Twitter and Instagram.
