I was thinkin of going to a local place here and getting a bunch of t shirts made up with East Coast Xplorers on the front and the logo from the NY site (check sig) on the back. No idea what these are gonna cost but I wanted to see if anyone was interested. I would be willing to get them done and ship them from my school if everyone paid for shipping.

As soon as John gets my money order (meaning, as soon as I send it ;)) i'd be in on one of these shirts... Black long sleeve'd ones would be cool.

There's a place up here by my school that this one kid goes to who makes up promo t shirts for big events like huge parties or just to sell them himself. I haven't looked into it fully yet, I just wanted to see how much interest I would have before I went out and did it.

ChuckyD
02-10-2003, 08:31 PM
well if its a cool design i would be very interested...

I'd be interested as long as it didn't say New York on it :)

i'd take one if it related to the whole ECX and not just NY.

I second that... Don't take to kindly to yanks down here in VA ;) Maybe one with the stars and bars? (JOKE) That will insight waaaay to many arguments (frankly, I don't want to have to get into heritage not hate again..) ;)

But IMO most definately go ahead with the shirts (assuming I do become a member ;))

Nah they aren't gonna say NY. Check this link for the logo I want to use for the back:
http://www.geocities.com/xplorer693/ecxlogocopy.jpg
And on the front left (smaller) or across the chest have the smaller:

I was also thinking about making up black t shirts to start and see how much extra it would be for long sleeve ones too.

02-10-2003, 10:00 PM

I meant reds

Looks awesome to me.. I especially love how they're both Sports :D

4Wheelin
02-12-2003, 09:53 PM
What sizes would everyone need? I was going to go with like half larges and half x-larges. How does that sound?

ChuckyD
02-12-2003, 09:54 PM
XL :D

02-12-2003, 10:33 PM
Also would everyone prefer to have the east coast xplorers on the front be small and on the left or have it be across the whole middle?

Hokie
02-12-2003, 10:37 PM
Hmmm... I almost think having it in the mid chest line would be kinda cool... The way they usually write college names and stuff centered in the chest line... Whats easier/cheaper?

4Wheelin
02-12-2003, 10:59 PM
Not sure yet, gonna go price them out tomorrow. I just need an estimate on how many shirts i am gonna need

diablo5969
02-13-2003, 06:35 AM
I'll take a large.

I almost think it'd be cooler with the front logo to be small and on the left. But I guess that's just me...

JoshC
02-13-2003, 06:50 AM
I guess i'll take an XL. It will shrink a little. I like it across the front, but it doesn't matter.

Happy trails!!

IAmTodd
02-13-2003, 09:28 AM
I'll take an XL(even though i'm not a member) and it depends on how much

VBVA
02-13-2003, 11:03 AM
I'll take a Large. Sorry for asking a dumb question, but with they be long sleeve or short sleeve?

4Wheelin
02-13-2003, 12:31 PM
They are gonna be black and short sleeves.

IAmTodd

I've asked about it and chuck(i think) said it no longer existed. So i didn't bother to pursue it any futher

Any idea on the cost?

diablo5969
02-13-2003, 07:56 PM
It's not much. The only cost is buying at least one ECX decal for the Explorer.

I'd tell you to talk to the Pennsylvania chapter coordinator, but I don't know who that is off the top of my head. yob_yeknom is the head of the ECX (I think...), so you could probably just PM him and ask what the deal is.

But this is 4wheelin's thread about Tshirts, so we should probably stop babbling now :D

LMAO..I think that although LizardTrac probably would not mind being seen sporting an EcX Shirt, he's the proud founder of his own club, ###############..

4Wheelin- How about I design two new minis for the logo? Just give me a little while..my computer has issues.


I'd love to have a shirt, or maybe 10 :D XL please (hey, I'm not proud)

Spas - That would be real cool if you wanted to design up some new logo's. If you could make the sport truck a gen 1 (that looks like my truck without the bar) that would be nice :D I'll definitly throw in a free shirt for your help. Thanks again.

Can everyone make due with just XL and larges? because I don't know how the printing place works with shirt sizes.

Spas
02-14-2003, 05:37 PM
How's a 4 door second gen (off roader) and a
2 door first gen (sporty truck) sound?


Or do you guys want it the other way around? The possibilities are endless.......

JoshC
02-14-2003, 05:46 PM
I'm kinda partial to the second gen 4 doors, maybe cause i have one!

I really really love the one that Lindsey did for me a while ago, now it will actually look like that with my 35's.

Happy trails!!

02-14-2003, 06:18 PM

02-16-2003, 05:41 PM
Well, I'll tell you guys what- since XX's minis are both 2 doors, I'll make EcX's both 4 doors!

Give me a week and some computer kicking to get it done, ok? ;)

02-17-2003, 11:41 AM
I got a compromise....Make a 1st Gen 4 Door driving over a Jeep like its a rock and 2nd Gen 2 Door streeter smoking his tires on the Jeep....

IAmTodd
02-17-2003, 12:00 PM
hmmm....i like that idea

4Wheelin
02-17-2003, 05:29 PM
There definitly has to be a sport and a 4 door on there and one has to be an offroader and one has to be street because thats what the club is. And I am not too keen on the idea of the jeeps cuz then it's gonna start problems when people wear them at shows and what not.

Hokie
02-17-2003, 05:34 PM
I agree with 4Wheelin.

diablo5969
02-17-2003, 07:58 PM
Me too.

But secretly, 4 doors are cooler :D

IAmTodd
02-17-2003, 09:37 PM
Thats what you think!

Spas
02-19-2003, 01:18 AM
LOL

You guys are just too much :D ;)

Well, in my own humble opinion, 2 door 2nd gens are sportier because A) They're more aerodynamically rounded, B) they're well, 2 doors.... which leads to better times at the track as well as the addition of the SOHC, which is faster than the OHV in stock form. 1st Gen 4 doors are some of the beefiest, meanest looking lifted trucks on the planet, though....

With that in mind, how about a lowered 2door 2nd gen with a 4door 1st gen towering behind it?

4Wheelin
02-19-2003, 01:22 AM
I got an idea to build on this cuz no one can come to one agreement. How about a gen 1 sport truck on one side with a jacked gen 1 towering behind it and the same on the other side with gen 2's??

VBVA
02-19-2003, 03:09 PM
Thats a lot of stuff on the back of a T-Shirt, but I do like that idea 4Wheelin. I also like your idea too Spas...

This one sounds like the best idea to me

Hokie
02-19-2003, 05:46 PM
I don't think we want these shirts too busy.. If we have lifted and lowered trucks on both sides of the shirt, its going to start looking like one of those loud NASCAR shirts that people for some reason or another think look good. (Not bashing NASCAR, I love me some redneck racing, but those shirts are fugly as hell!)

Spas

>bangs head on table< LOL

Tell ya what, I'll draw the one I spoke of since it's almost finished anyway, and I'll do the second one too, on a different piece of paper. That way if there's an opportunity to get a second batch of shirts (maybe long sleeved?) made, we can use the other design?

Huh? Huh?? :D

Doesn't bother me none, but if you want to ask rick, go right ahead:p Honestly, Rangers came before Xplorers, and the Explorer is based on the basic platform, so maybe everyone on the site should be Ranger wannabes:D ;)

How about a 2x for us bigger guys. If so, I would be interested in a couple of them. I llike the idea of long sleeve better, but a short sleeve would work.
