There are many different car sign products available for purchase, and you should choose one that will be a good fit for your vehicle. Depending on the type of vehicle you drive, there are certain products that will work better for you. Here’s an overview of the most-popular types of vehicles on the road, and also what car sign products are suggested for each one.
- Pickups and Work Trucks-Pickup trucks like the Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado, and Dodge Ram are quite popular for work vehicles because of their ruggedness and functionality. Trucks usually have large, wide doors, which are perfect for magnetic signs that display DOT numbers (a common need for work trucks). Customers also like to put magnets on the truck’s tailgate which are highly-visible to motorists following behind.
- Full-Size Vans-Cargo vans are very common with small businesses because they provide the utility of a pickup truck but the cargo can be covered like an SUV or minivan. If your business owns a Dodge Sprinter, Ford E-Series, Chevrolet Express, etc., consider printing large car decals to apply on the sides of the van. These are eye-catching and offer lots of room to advertise your business and its products/services.
- Passenger Cars-Sedans and coupes are cheaper to own and get better gas mileage than larger vehicles. If you don’t need a lot of storage space, you can use a vehicle like the Ford Fusion or Toyota Camry for your business. As long as your vehicle’s door doesn’t have trim, use car magnets to identify the business. This is great if the vehicle is your employee’s personal car as they can remove the magnet when not at work.
- Minivans/SUVs-The most-common product you’ll see on an SUV like the Ford Escape or minivan like the Dodge Grand Caravan is a full-size car window decal. Since the rear windows of these vehicles are more-upright than cars, these see-through window graphics work very well (if they’re ordered in the right size).
- Crossovers-Crossover utility vehicles like the Kia Soul and Nissan Cube have become very popular in the last few years. Since these vehicles usually have funky, unique shapes, this can be accentuated with full-size car graphics. These are highly-visible and generate buzz about the business.
- Wagons-Station wagons and hatchbacks offer the economy of a car with the utility of an SUV. For a vehicle like the Mazda 3 5-Door or Toyota Matrix, you’ll want to order either a car magnet or a car window decal.
