Sometime in April is a very big swap meet held at the Norwalk Dragstrip near my home. They have it once a year and it is HUGE!! Every year, they have a guy that does vinyl, adhesive backed graphics of whatever you want, in just about any type of font (lettering) that you could imagine. He's there every year, and I'm seriously considering looking into having him do a whole bunch of decals like the Jeeps have, except for Explorers instead. You know, the ones that would say,"It's an Explorer thing...you wouldn't understand!" Is anyone interested in this? It enough people respond, I'll get a price from him and see how much it costs to have them done. He has multiple colors, but I think if we get them in bulk, in one color, he might give us a better price. I was thinking maybe in white, italicized letters. What do you guys think?

What size are you thinking of?
 






Decal size

Maybe 2 to 3 inch letter height, and long enough to cover the top edge of the rear window. That's just my thoughts, this is completely open for suggestions.
 






perhaps two inches in height and just fit between the hatch hinges, i'd be in. oh and by the way, i would go for white.
 












Guesstimate?

Rounded price range? Just so I could get an idea...I like having displays on my truck that not one else has! :)
 






I think it's kinda silly to copy the Jeepers. Jeeper are full of themselves anyway...This will give them an even bigger head. Why not come up w/ one that makes fun of them. Or at least come up w/ something original.
 






i know i guy who does the same kind of stuff. for a single color about the size you were describing he usually charges around 20-25 bucks
 






Price range

I figured the price range to be anywhere from 15 to 25 dollars. As far as 'copying the J@@pers' goes, I still like the idea. But I'm open to any other suggestions. Let's brainstorm this if you guys really want something different.
 






I would go for that, white would be o.k. 2-3" letters that would fit between the back window hinges!
 












i got an idea, for those of you who don't like brian's idea, why don't y'all come up with some ideas of your own? he came up with something he thinks will be fun, and he put it here for us. let's all be a little more open to others' ideas, okay?
 






I was just saying that it's kinda wierd.

Do whatcha want. I just think it would be better to come up w/ something original.

Is it getting hot in here? AAAAHHHHH...... Not the FLAMES!
 






Dr. Moore

Thanks for your support. As I stated before, it's just an idea, and if that idea generates more, or better ideas, then I'm all for it. So everyone else, Please don't shoot the messenger!
 






This is for the guys coming over from the COLORADO4X4.ORG board(mostly J@#pers)...

It's a Jeep thing...only Yuppies understand!

Jeep...It's what's for dinner!

How about:

" It's a Grocery Getter thing, we all understand"

That fits nicely, no ?
 






Let's keep it nice, fellas. :)

It's an Explorer thing, only those who have rolled over would understand!

It's an Explorer thing, we had to redesign them to ward off anymore lawsuits!
