Of course the windows will be filled with decals for all my brands.
Getting a 3" lift and 33" tires real soon too.
I think it will make a good "rolling billboard" for the shop. Be pretty hard not to notice
Here's the mock up my painter sent me. Going to make a couple small changes but you get the idea.

Do they allow hunting at the zoo? Hahahahahaha
Just kidding, I only hunt "fair chase"
It will tie in with my new side job as bowhunting rep for a safari outfit in South Africa.

I never got into hunting, not much to speak of here in Southern California, in less you like your deer tasting like sage. Anyway, I always thought if I were to do it it would have to be with a bow, and actually stalk the prey. Sorry to offend any hunters, but I always felt sitting in a tree stand with your scoped 30.06 was a joke. Shooting with a scope period is BS. The only fair way is stalking with a bow. IMHO at least. Great paint job by the way, definitely good marketing.

Somehow when I saw this thread, I thought it might be you Dave. One thing is for sure-it's good marketing. All I can think of is Fred Bear.

Instead of the golf ball or baseball stuck in the window, that the soccer moms have, you need a couple of arrows.

One of these days I'll stop by and see if you can get me fired up for bow hunting (like I need another hobby) like you did for Buells.

Your truck might end up on a car website when they think that yours is a prototype new Ford. : )

To me that looks like something Uncle Ted (Nugent) would drive. Which might not be a bad thing since he is into the same thing. Definitely an eye grabber.

You want to do it properly it needs an endless mp3 loop, a PA and external speakers pumping:

I'd be more likely to blast Ted Nugent's Fred Bear or Tooth,Fang and Claw on the PA but that's a great idea!

From setting your stand in the perfect spot to sneeking to your stand quietly and not leaving a scent trail is sooo fun.
Then having does and fawns milling around then that buck walks right by you and you pull back for the shot with your knees shaking-Wow.
Then tracking the blood trail and there he is!

Can't wait for next year!

I may have to come see you for my next bow Daves.

Daves,
Is the current paint or body damaged? If not, maybe you should wrap it instead of paint. You can take it off later if you sell it.

Dave: I recommend you skip the zebra stripes and go for a leopard spot motif.

That way, the hail dimples won't show...

...seriously, it looks great!

Well, I usually drive my stuff til it drops so I'm not too worried about ever needing to take the stripes or logo off.

Very funny RT

Dave when you come to Homecoming I'll introduce to Will. He does complete Vehicle wrap's. He could even do the back windows and still be able to see through them.... just not from the outside.

It will be done before that.
The guy that is doing it does deer murals and I have already gained him a couple customers for that so he is cutting me a deal.
He's going to paint the stripes, Double Lung logo and then clear the whole truck for less than a wrap!

damn! theyd be really handy with that paint job!!!! lol.

maybe you can super glue some arrows to the stock rims! or have them stick out of the center caps like the old roman chariots...

hey, atleast it will draw attention! isnt that what an advertisement is suppose to do!
