Yeah, I'm just more of an emblem remover than installer. I do have to say, if your going to have an emblem, that 5.0 emblem is a good looking one. I like the clean look. The tailgate drives me nuts when I look at it.

Just look at that! Looks like a dadgum bulletin board.

Correction......billboard

I always at least take of the dealers emblem/sticker......they've already got your money and they're not paying us to advertise.....


When I used to get my oil changes done at Ford the quick lube guys thought it was funny to slap on another dealers emblem.....it was done 3 times and the last time they repainted my tailgate>>>the idiot quick lube manager tried taking it off with a screw driver and the oil lube jockey lost his job....this wasn't his first time he was caught doing this....

I made them remove it on my 2005 as a stipulation of the purchase. There wasn't one on the 2011. Guess they couldn'yt find a blank spot.

I have toyed with the idea of removing the Texas Edition and the Flex Fuel emblems. wife would fuss if I took of the Texas Edition.

The dealer has their name on the license holder and that is not a problem and it's enough.

The Chevy dealer here in Athens is Bacon Chevrolet and there are vehicles all over town with BACON on their rear. Nothing else, just BACON. I get a laugh out of that. Some of them are individual chrome letters, so they spend some money to call their customers a pig.

I figured you did, but hearing it and seeing it is not the same. If it said Bacon Auto Group or something, that would be one thing, but just Bacon always makes me laugh.

There is a town down the road, Gun Barrel City, Tx.

There is a body shop in Crowley, Grumpy's Body Shop. He stays busy too.
