What are you putting on the side of your truck?
 
Hey guys,
I'm having the 30"by 50" signs made up for my truck, and was wondering what you put on your signs and what not.
1.MC OK
2.DOT OK
3.VIN how many ## (I noticed the old signs on my truck only used the last 7 digits)
4.Company name OK
5.phone number, my girl says yes, I say no because it leads to people crank calling you, or lizards soliciting services.
6.Web address (doghouseexpress.com company info, and driver bio's, my girl is a real computer geek, so I'm getting a website like it or not,.......not)

phone number=no
website=yes

Minimum requirements are:

Company Name
DOT#

If you don't want to go into the scalehouse everytime in CO you will need the last, I think it's 8, digits of the VIN.

That's all I put on mine. I'm not worried about losing the business I might get from somebody seeing me on the road and calling. Personally, I think the less info available to the public the better...but that's just me.

i`ve got my business name on the door and my dot, mc and last 8 of my vin on small stainless tabs behind the doors.

their all pinstriped on pretty small, theres a law dictating the size of your numbers but i`ve never been hassled.

Yes, make sure that your numbers are the correct size, two inches, or you will get a ticket,

So the last 8 vin it is, and no phone ## just a web address.

I think he took this pic after he had it worked over at the border when he was in Mexico. Or was that just the interior?
