Why run Manufacturer's stickers!?!?!

[massey2jeep]

I just saw some stickers on Rock Buggy's rig, and it got me thinkin, WHY!?!?! Don't get me wrong Rock...

If you are being paid to run someone's stickers I say HECK YEA! But until Moser gives me free axles, or K&N provides me with free filter cleaning products, I'm not advertising for them, HELL NO! This goes for anyone who doesn't cut me a good deal.

I will run the stickers of people or products that I have either gotten a great deal on or have done me a favor. ie. River City Differentials, Sean cut me a deal with my axles and I will be more than happy to run his stickers...if he ever FREAKIN gets anymore! <IMG SRC="smilies/thefinger.gif" border="0"> I've also run RE stickers since I got EXCELLENT CS from them. I just can't see slappin a sticker on your rig just because you are runnin this or that product tho, ya know?

[CJ5-Man]

i only have club stickers on mine. I'd rather mine look like a sleeper/pos than a pos with a lot of money (in bolt ons) sunk into it

[Highlander]

Amen to that!! Why drive someone elses billboard!!! <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

[Dan4jeepin]

Don't you know that for every sticker you get 10 extra HP from your rig <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

I have to ask, is this a joke or a typo? Or, better yet, you just love the availability of d35 housings/carriers so you had a custom one built for your front axle.

[The Rockslut]

Yeah, I have my club sticker and a <IMG SRC="smilies/massey.gif" border="0"> sticker on each side of my Jeep. What have you ever done for me? Thats it I'm peeling them off tonight! <IMG SRC="smilies/thefinger.gif" border="0">

[DUG]

I have a few stickers on my junk. Only for places that have done me right.

The new rig has only a Howe Racing Radiator sticker because they got me a aluminum radiator for about half anyone else.

I put the stickers on when a vendor does something so good for me I want to recomend that everyone I know go to them.

To just plaster stickers for every vendor you use all over your junk is <IMG SRC="smilies/rainbow.gif" border="0"> Even worse are the guys with a sticker fer junk they don't even have!

[cj8scrambld]

Stickers save you from having to paint the rig. Or, it may hold the rig together that is if the stickers are of good quality. LOL

[Ztec]

the only car i ever put parts stickers on was when i had a crappy geo just cause it was funny, one day i covered it with performance/racing stickers i had been saving up. <IMG SRC="smilies/bounce2.gif" border="0">

[Insayn]

Stickers keep the freshly scraped metal from rusting. But then again so does primer.

i thought.. why the stickers.. i dont have any stickers.. mmmmm...
then i put two and two to together.. and came up with..
i dont buy anything for my jeep.. i make it.. so i dont have any faggot stickers to put on it..
<IMG SRC="smilies/thefinger.gif" border="0">

[TmbrRtlr]

My stickers go on my toolbox. I see no reason in running someone else advertisements.

TmbrRtlr

[cj8scrambld]

Insayn, I do believe that primer does not protect against rust. it is porous and moisture will go through it and attack the metal as if there was no paint at all. So, the stickers are a much better choice than primer. Nothing like a nice coat of vinyl over your body rash! LOL

I thought that they were for contingency money in racing. Doesn't make much sense for non-competitors.

It does however show everyone what you're running. Like saying steal mine instead of his.

[Eric Ruhl]

I sport a Massey-Lift sticker, does that count? <IMG SRC="smilies/thefinger.gif" border="0">

[BabyWrangle]

That's how I think about it. I have quite a few stickers on mine but they only get there because I have gotten good customer service or the product is bulletproof. One such example is my Currie shackle hangers. I ripped my front passenger one clear off the frame and I had a huge trip planned that weekend. I called Currie when I got home from my escapades and they overnighted me the parts (at no extra charge) so I could weld ut up and still go on this trip. I think that deserves a spot on my rig.

[Rokmycj]

I only have two stickers on my rig
1. "If god didn't run man out of the garden of eden the sierra club would have"
2. "BEER- helping ugly people have sex since 1842"
3. " Got Beer?"
4. "CA4WD association" the most important

Actually I put my stickers on magnets. that way when I get tired of the stickers I can move them.

[SweetCJ7]

Damn! Why would you run any stickers except plate reg for the state. Maybe it's just me that I prefer a clean body line.

Then again, if someone were to give me their product, hmmmm, say Jess from High Angle Driveline, I would place a few(hell a lot) of them on my rig.

Jess are you listening???? Call me bud!

[Qbert]

This is what I got in mine Warn gave me $10 off and free ($15) delivery on parts for my Winch,
Cochise Drive Line 520-459-3051 Located in Sierra Vista AZ. Gives me everything (driveline stuff) I need for free. Randy’s RP They gave us a hell of a discount on my Rp and spool and they give my buds good discounts to. Skyjacker on windshield, They gave me free shocks if I would put it on at the store. And club sticker. The rest of the stuff I stick under the hood. Oh and I forgot my Hot wheels sticker. This has no purpose except feed my ego.

I have some stickers,but there under my hood,you need to have the hood open to see them.

[PUREINSANITY]

They are a shopping list for theives. It makes their life easier not having to guess what you have. I still have stickers on mine, but they were on it when I bought it. Really they were! LOL! I have been removing them as time permits. I hate cleaning up the glue!

[jeepster1220]

Reminds me of the guys that would have Kenwood, Alpine, Kicker, Rockford Fosgate, etc. stickers covering the entire back window of their cars. Just seems to say "Somebody please break into me and steal everything"....
Thousands of dollars in equipment and a visual invitation to those who would be looking for it... <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

I think it's just a whole ego "Look at how equipped my rig is"...Whatever. I know what I have, I don't need to brag about it.

I too feel that the best place for stickums is on the tool box. Butt what is totally <IMG SRC="smilies/rainbow.gif" border="0"> is when people pay money to wear advertising, i.e. Nike or Hillfiger T-shirts or jackets etc. I do wear a few caps that have advertising on them but they have always been free promos or lovely parting gifts.

p.s. I said butt, hehehe.

I only put stickers on my shop BEER fridge

I like to have them so when I go to the grocery store or the mall people will think I'm cool. <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

Why do people care? Are looks that important to you that you have to criticize others for what they put on the exterior of their rig?

I got the stickers on my jeep cause people used to allways ask me what I was running and it just makes it easier. Allso I like there product. Some stuff is on my jeep but there aint no sticker for it

Very few high performance fridges equipped with Flowmaster, LockRite, ARB, Detroit, Skoal, Edelbrock, Etc...

Did it ever cross your mind that maybe some people take pride in the educated (or sometimes not so educated) decision they made to buy a certain product and that pride may, God forbid, lead to the display of a sticker on, gasp, their trail rig?

I'm going to go buy a huge PRO COMP sticker and put it on my windshield. With the amount of business that sticker will generate, before too long there will be no one left on the hard trails and more room for me!

Maybe I should pull all my Jeep emblems off before I let DC get any more advertisment.

If you can't take a little ribbing then go somewhere else. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> I think that's what you guys told me a while back.

This sounds like Minnesota Cody.

If you want to be a free billboard for a manufacturer, than by all means go for it, as you're free to do so. My only question is... WHY? <IMG SRC="smilies/confused.gif" border="0">

[MoabZJ]

I agree that an excessive amount of stickers is rediculous, I just was joining in on the POR spirit by offering an opposing viewpoint!

I have a couple of stickers, but I display them because I'm happy with their products.

Happy Trails

sweet tech!

[Keith Strong]

I think the better question for this thread is why did so many people run "Massey Lift Equipped" stix :laughing: :flipoff2:

[Geesh]

Had a roommate with one of those damn Massey Lift decals on is rig. He hates being called a Fembot too . . .

That fawker's fault I am knee deep in a pile of Jeep parts in my garage as I speak . . . .

Think if I get enough bailing wire to hold it all together, I can drive around with a my new Messy Lift equipped decal. Fat City . . .:flipoff2:

[Damage, Inc.]

Stickers just tell would-be-thieves what kind of good shit your rig has in it...kind of let's 'em shop!

[TPIJeep]

I only run one sticker at the moment, but may add 2 more when I am back together, I run and will always run a High Angle Driveline sticker due to the outstanding product and service.. During this build up I have gotten a ton of parts from 2 other companies with outstanding service and I plan to add them..

Hows that for tech ??? :flipoff2:

[TheTonka]

The thing that kills me is people who go out and PAY MONEY for stickers and shirts and other chit from manufacturers. Basically if you do this you are paying a company to advertise for them.

I love this as a small business owner, and hope people will do this for me. I would appreciate getting paid to let people advertise for me. I would never do it for someone else.

But thats just me, I'm cheap.
