CAD Sticker

[terrylamar]

Why don't we offer a sticker we can prominantly stick to our trucks so we know who other CAD members are out on the road. We could stick it in a certain agreed upon place so it would be easy to find. I, personally, would like to meet and greet as many of you as possible.

[heavenbound]

Come down and see me, just a few hours from ya.

That would be cool to have a sticker of CAD btw.

[devildice]

I like the idea

[terrylamar]

I like the idea

See, I have good ones once in a blue moon!

Hey, I never doubt a fellow Texan :wink:

[Jackrabbit379]

Yeah,that would be a good idear, but, how would I explain that one to my supervisors. :P Good idee, Terry.

Explain what CAD is, then get them to advertise. :D I was thinking about what if your employer didn't want you to place a sticker on your truck, my solution was to put it on a piece of cardboard, then place it on your dash. Be inventive.

[Krzysztof]

Yeah that'd be awesome. I've often wondered how many of my fellow CAD drivers I've passed on the road or in the t/s's. I forget who it was now, but I sent someone on here a PM because after reading their post I realized that I was in the same T/S as them on the same night and didn't even know it :)

SO yeah... I vote FOR a CAD sticker :)

[WildK9]

i like the idea also. definitely have to come up with a good place to put it on company trucks, where it could be moved if you change trucks, quit, or even fired. :wink:

[devildice]

What if instead of a traditional sticker, it's made of that vinyl plastic thingy......like what these quick oil change places (autos) use to write your next oil change on and stick to your windshield.

This way it can be easily removed and placed on your new ride.....just a thought

[WildK9]

that's a great idea! :wink:

[Twilight Flyer]

I sent Jeff an e-mail to check out the idea.

you could even go one step further and leave a small blank spot on them so that a person can write his/her CAD screen name on it

[yoopr]

Sticker is a good idea

[terrylamar]

These are all good suggestion, I hope it becomes a reality.

[terrylamar]

Maybe make it a magnetic sticker. It would be easily transferable.

[yoopr]

Now you're getting technical :P

[terrylamar]

Now you're getting technical :P

Actually, there are many companies set up to do that. When I was running my Gunsmithing business, they would call me all the time pushing calendars with your logo or saying or whatever. You could have it made in the diamond shape at the top of this page and like devildice said with a place to put your screen name. I would buy at a minimum of two.

[yoopr]

Don't happen to have a AR for sale do you?

[terrylamar]

Don't happen to have a AR for sale do you?

I don't have any in stock at the moment, been trucking! :D I still have my FFL and can still get anything. Receiving them will be difficult because I'm hardly ever at the shop during the week.

[yoopr]

Congrats with your start in trucking.
if you happen to run across one at a DECENT price( :roll: ) let me know.
I know you can send from one FFL to another FFL

[Jackrabbit379]

Another good one. Yeah, that would work, too. :P

[marylandkw]

Maybe make it a magnetic sticker. It would be easily transferable. Not so sure how that would work out, I have precious few magnetic surfaces on my truck.

We could use that diamond at the top of every page or we could do something to display the great variety of people we have on here like say a rainbow sticker......Wait, I think that one is taken.

Doesn't every truck have a bumper?

[marylandkw]

Doesn't every truck have a bumper? Some are Fiberglass :lol:

This is a fun game terry!

It was an honest question, I am still a newbie! :D

[ToxicWaste]

yoopr-if you are interested in the sticker idea pass it up the chain and send me a pm. I know someone in the graphics business that should be able to hook us up. If you are looking for an ar might be able to help w/that one as well

Some other moderator threw it up the chain of command already

[Mackman]

Am a member over at powerstroke.org its a forum for diesel ford owners. They have a thing over there called a PREMIUM MEMBER its 10bucks a year you get 2 stickers and a facny thing under your S/N saying your premium member. And you get a special forum that just premium members can see and use. its a idea???

[Rev.Vassago]

I think CAD patches would be better. :wink:

[devildice]

http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k15/revvassago1/CADpatch.jpg

why not patches and stickers?

Rev, I think your patch is cool but how about having the website URL listed there too.......advertisement

[terrylamar]

Any updates on a patch or sticker or both from CAD?

[shyykatt]

Where do ya get the cool 'big truck' stickers/decals to put on ('4-wheeler')trucks?(aside from t.s's- order them on-line from someplace or???)thnx.

[WildK9]

just wonderin', did this idea come about, or is it still "in the works", or did it die?

[mapleleaf_1]

I've been wondering the same thing Wild. :roll: Drive safe everyone. :)

[yoopr]

well until the Owner of CAD says something you can always come up with a Sticker or Card on your own to display on your truck or jacket.

[Jackrabbit379]

Good idea, Yoopr. Maybe I can make millions. :P

[terrylamar]

well until the Owner of CAD says something you can always come up with a Sticker or Card on your own to display on your truck or jacket.

I would think the name and or design is trademarked. We would, legally, still need permission.

[terrylamar]

Come down and see me, just a few hours from ya.

That would be cool to have a sticker of CAD btw.

Without going back and doing a search, aren't you at JB Hunt in San Antonio? And I may have you mistaken with someone else. I was across the street from there the other day.

Nope, that would not be me, i down here in Humble just north of Houston.

[terrylamar]

Hey, what's the latest. Any progress. What if I took it upon myself to come up with a sticker and or patch, do I have CAD's permission. I can get them made relatively cheaply down in Mexico. There have been a few suggestions. Maybe we can come up with a few designs and vote on them. I'm more than happy getting them made. What do you say CAD?

[CAD]

We will look into having some made and bring them to the Dallas Truck Show (stickers). If anyone wants to submit a design, I will look it over and get quotes.

If anyone is interested in shirts, I guess I could have some made at cost. Contact me about this...

[RedRaven]

O.k. here's an idea, you can tell me if it's stupid, or not, I don't mind... :lol:

You could have vinyl magnets with the CAD logo on it... That way it is removable as well... :wink:

[Jackrabbit379]

That would be nice, if everyone drove Petes. Not every truck is made of metal anymore. :P :lol:

[Roadhog]

aluminum is nonferrous.

[Jackrabbit379]

aluminum is nonferrous.
Um... :| Is that like saying, you cant stick a magnet to it? :shock:

[RedRaven]

In that case my other idea was Air Fresheners, that could be hung off a mirror by an elastic cord... Still removable, just have to figure out which mirror you would like to hang it on... Cheap to produce, and you could buy a package of them, like you do any other automobile air freshener... Now, you would just have to decide on a scent...

Ooops, I feel another Survey Says coming on soon... :lol: :wink:

[CAD]

We already give out branded pen holders that clip to visors at the truck shows.

I think the original idea was to publicly display support of the forums at Classadrivers.com by using stickers of some sort whether they be window decals or bumper stickers, or magnets, etc...

Also, we would make shirts to sell to anyone who wold be interested. I can get them made pretty reasonably here, or we could set it up through some vendor so that folks could go in and order their own from customink or some other branding/printing/embriodery company.

[CAD]

here are some suggestions for bumper stickers...

[Twilight Flyer]

LOL! That's classic! :lol:

[shyykatt]

sweet :wink:

[CAD]

Now, if we decide on a design, what size would we need for the trucks or for cars?

I see that some standard sizes are 9 X 3 (that is the standard used in my previous designs above) and a 15 X 2.75

Anyone have any other sizes they think would work best on the trucks?

[Jackrabbit379]

That's cool! 8) Sweet.

[Jackrabbit379]

In that case my other idea was Air Fresheners, that could be hung off a mirror by an elastic cord... Now, you would just have to decide on a scent..
Well, I was just thinking about that. Could be interesting. :shock:. Ahh, the wonderful fresh scent of smoke :P :lol:

and a little b.o with some diesel fuel- yummy!! :lol: :P

[Jackrabbit379]

Lovely, isnt it? :P

[PhuzzyGnu]

How about something simple?

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y109/phuzzygnu/classadrivers.jpg

You could take this over to www.cafepress.com and get it made with no cost and whoever wanted to buy it could buy it. Or not.

-p.

[Scoe]

here are some suggestions for bumper stickers...

http://www.classadrivers.com/images/iheartcad.gif

Yo gnomes, wassup?

Just hangin' with my gnomies. Brilliant!! :shock:

How about something like,

CAD me if you can
Class A Drivers.com

[RedRaven]

CAD, of the two designs you've created, the second with the heart is the best of the two...

While the first one is amusing, it sounds more like a promotional bumper sticker for a garden club organization... :lol: :wink:

As for the Air Freshener idea, you could offer them in those cologne scents... So, whether your a woman, or man trucker, your truck can smell shower fresh, even if you don't... :lol: :shock: 8)

[CAD]

Anyone else have any input for stickers? We will not sell these, we will give them away for free. Once we design a sticker, anyone on this forum who sends me an email with their address will get one mailed to them.

I am looking for some more design ideas and possibly putting some of them up for a vote in the survey says area...

[yoopr]

great idea

[Mackman]

i want 5 stickers :D

[yoopr]

i want 5 stickers :D

You'll get ONE and be Happy to get that ONE :P

I say keep it simple and classy and go with a small/med size of the CAD logo

If you put a pic of BMC ( avatar ) on it, it will attract alot more attention. :P

[CAD]

May cause more accidents....

[Twilight Flyer]

May?!?

This post as been nominated for understatement of the year. :lol:

[Jackrabbit379]

It all sounds good. Uh, who is BCM?

[Twilight Flyer]

BMC...Big Mama CAD.

Lucinda has an avatar that is the cure for E.D. :lol:

"Cialus? We don't need no steenking Cialus! We go to CAD and raise de tent!"

[Jackrabbit379]

Oh ok. :lol: :lol: :P

[Roadhog]

http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l236/Leland10/BMC.gif


Hog is usually in de tent. :D
Hog loves Miss Behaving. 8)
BMC is the only one who can control The Capt. or his Big Bat. :evil:

[Big Momma CAD]

WOW I guess I need to post more often. He didn't even know who I was :cry: :cry: :cry:

[Scoe]

And we would know you from...?

[Roadhog]

:? ...sounds like someone woke up on the wrong side of the rock... :?

http://www.geico.com/video/topic_h.htm

[Jackrabbit379]

:lol:
Yeah, and you tube has some of those videos, too. 8) :lol:

[Roadhog]

after further thought...I think Scoe's just not getting enough attention from BMC.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=oLZPIqwMmvk

But he has a history with BMC...
he didn't use FedEx once.

I've never seen the Fed Ex commercial. :shock: :lol:

I don't really have any resources on the road and can't find what I was really looking for,but what I was thinking about a vinly cutout of a truck moving in a forward direction hauling the classAdrivers.com as a load?

I would rather have something like that on my window instead of a whole bumper sticker,thoughts?

What if the ClassAdrivers.com is the trailer,no outline only wheels under the "logo",I can't make it like I want it,either not talented enough(very probable) or don't have the program on my laptop to do it.

[shyykatt]

what about using the CAD logo you already have, at the top of the page?

[yoopr]

Haha-What a Great Idea

[Popeye]

I think with the colors from the page logo it would sunfade a little less also. I like the idea of a sticker or something that would help point out the users of this forum. This has been my most useful (and sometimes entertaining :D ) resource while deciding if this is the career path I want to take.
