The sticker thing is the same mentality that have
people wearing grossly over priced 't' shirts
emblazoned with 'CK' or 'DKNY' and such. It's an
attempt to intimidate people with their ability to
blow money on material goods. Even though spending
that kind of money for those goods has stupid stamped
all over it. Why deface your goods to give free
advertising to someone??
Interesting that someone brought up Ferrari going to a
plain car as acknowledgement of 9/11. Go back a few
years and look at pictures of Formual One Cars. There
is not a sticker to be seen. In a lot of cases you'd
be hard pressed to even know who the manufacturer was.
You could tell the country of origin by the car
color, green for England, Red for Italy, Silver for
Germany, etc. but that was it. Looks like motor
racing has gone the way of NASCAR. A real shame as
most of these cars can actually turn RIGHT and left.
Personally, a bumper sticker or some humurous phrase
that says something that I want said or about me as an
owner is enough. Haven't even gone that far on my
trucks, though. Maybe a Scot flag or a Union Jack so
the Rover doesn't get mistaken for a vehicle from the
land of the rising sun but can't see any more than
that. Now if someone was paying me to put a sticker
on my truck, that's a different story. Might even go
so far as to put the tops back on the trucks so I'd
have windows to put the stickers on.
