FWIW - Marathon Coach is in my backyard and I don't recall seeing any issues with their metalic jobs. Didn't scrutinize them too close, but never noticed any pooling etc.

Maybe break it up with a commercial theme which my draw less scrutinixing attention to the rig.

Use your logo:


W
E Transportation
L
D

Not fer Hire

Maybe a free flowing very light ghost checkered flag motiff?

A struggling business that just can't seem to make ends meet year after year

Actually --- it has a huge chrome grill -- and big headlights - and chrome bumper -- and SS all the way down the side of the toter and stacker... so maybe that's enough! And all the window are black...

Thanks for the input guys -- really! I'm struggling with this part of it.

I thought you were all done after picking the options.

Now you need to figure out how to paint it? What a bitch!!

I like the ghost flame idea but with a vehicle that big you cant do the whole thing in flames so doing the cab only isn't a bad idea. Trying to tie another scheme into that is a tough one though.

I would probably run the ghost flames up front along with the triple color scheme on the truck they showed in the video. I liked the front of that truck.

Maybe on a car but not a hauler. Haulers with flames are cool. I recently saw a 67 Chevelle, all black with candy purple, blue, red, and yellow ghost flames in it. Wished I had my camera at the time. This thing looked bad ass!!

Last time I used LSD was probably around 1971.... but Tie-dye can be "cool"...

But don't you think nothing says "dated and old man driving large motorhome" as tie-dye?


What about lace painting?

Nah, not with a big pot leaf and a peace sign painted on the side of it. That would make you "hip"

I don't know about flames but it definitely needs a slogan.
