Can't blame the guy. TRS 2 is a sweet looking rig. There's a guy running a similar paint scheme on a 19+ Ranger. He has a great big Rigid logo on the doors but still basically TRS2 paint scheme

You have at least one fan out there.

How dare they! TRS stole it first fair and square!

I've rolled the idea around of having the bronco wrapped like that... Idk if velocity blue is really the right shade though.. it's super bright compared to the rest.

The "play nice" term would be that it's a "tribute" truck.

That's what the ads for fake Shelby's and fake Z28's always use . . .

I get using the paint scheme, but the last photo in the ad is literally my truck! WTF?!

This is funny timing because yesterday I came up with a new paint scheme for TRS-2, and it's not inspired by the Rough Riders.

It isn't really a tribute though. It isn't really trying to pretend to be one at all, the paint schemes are very similar yet very different.

And?

Imitation is the highest form of flattery?

I dunno, it was kind of funny. Maybe trying to make sure people knew it wasn't your truck.

I never said I was mad. I just didn't expect to see a pic of my truck in his ad. I kind of get why he did it.

He should have to pay royalties.
