What are your thoughts??

Since I'm not selling to anyone here, what are your thoughts?
I added this to my truck today. Trying to get more word out but keeping it very low profile. Not my style to plaster my pickup with stickers but here ya go.

I'm thinking of adding to left and right of the text a simple sailboat outline in white.

I will be removing the factory Made in USA sticker on the right.

This can be read about 3 car lengths away. 2 inches high lettering.

Easily visible, catches the eye, and readable at a glance, which is a good point in traffic.

It's also classy, which leads me to believe it was your wife's idea, and not yours

I've actually used a couple places I've seen using the same sort of window web sign..

LOL!
Actually it is all me!
I had two made.

I may put the other on the Explorer because it has blacked out windows and this would be very easy to read!

I dig it!

This is what I want on my Tow vehicle, as soon as I find it.
Or something similar.

Hey capt Scott I have found business cards to be the best thing.
you can get them cheap and the printers that do my card also give me extras like magnetic signs for my truck and stickers I think I even got a couple of free t-shirts with my car on them with my business name.

I'm like you I don't like bumper stickers and suck on my cars and never on my bug, but that looks fine in your winow I'm sure it will spark interest.

Now that my truck is ugly I want to put something on my tail gate that says
"You should be looking at the stern of my Chrysler C-22"

Looks good Scott and the sailboat would add to it but tape it first so you can
see what it looks like before you you make it semi-permanent

I am known around here as the Chrysler junkie. I have the C-26 that I tow with a V-8 Dakota 4X4 and wife has a Caravan. I want to get Chrysler to
put on the tongue of the Sea Lion trailer.

Looks good to me. Why take off the "Made in USA" sticker? There's precious little still made here. Why not let people know it's not Chinese?

CaptainScott · Post by **CaptainScott** » Fri Nov 27, 2009 5:23 pm

Two reasons:
It is a sticker and I generally do not like stickers on my cars, and the second is the idea of putting an outline of a sloop on either side of the words.

As far as made in USA??

You bet! I understand a world economy and I understand the value of made in USA!!

Three Fords, two Chevys, 1 Harley , AND . . . 1 Chrysler

Yes, you can question the Beneteau but it was built here in the USA too!

Thank you everyone for your input!!!!!!! I most certainly appreciate it!!

Shark69,

Your driveway must look sort of like mine. Two Dodge 1 ton pickups, a Chrysler Sebring convertable, an Oldsmobile Cutlass, a 1960 Harley panhead, and a Chrysler C-22.

I agree with the sticker thing; the only sticker on any of them is one on the 4x4 Dodge truck that says:

Jane, Call Home.
1-800-Hanoi.
