I like your whole general scope and philosophy. I think it will prove to be successful by sticking to your creedo. I'm sure there is a spot in the industry for your line.
Wow Tim, you are right on point. For the outer ribs on all the designs, I pulled design cues from the bowtie emblems on our trucks. Take a look at the emblems on the fender and grill. You will see a similar double rib design that I incorporated in the mirrors.

And, honestly, I cant believe you picked up on my thinking for#3. Just like you said, I had the lower trim in mind that runs down the body line of our trucks. I LOVE the look the trim gives the trucks. Cant wait to get my trim on!!

Thanks for the support.
