Title: PUT Bumper Sticker Sightings
Post by: B-flat on Nov 10, 2003, 05:14 PM
Post your PUT bumper sticker sightings here:
 
I saw one today on a Coleman being towed by a Red Truck (maybe a Ford,not sure) on US 1 north going toward Sanford, NC. Right above the PUT sticker which was located on the right traveling side was a #3 and #8 decal. I know these folks were probably on the way home from camping at the Pop Secret Race at "The Rock" (North Carolina Speedway) in Rockingham. They made a right turn onto NC78 at the Tramway light at Hardee's. Whoever it was, please sign in here, too.:D  Time of this sighting was about 10a.m.

Hey B-flat!!

You were lucky to see a fellow PUT'er.  We always check & check but have yet to see one (unless we're at a rally or something).  If we DID actually see one, I am not sure how we'd let them know WE are PUT'ers as well.  We have a "no bumper sticker" rule for the tow vehicles, but we have always had a sticker on our PU's.  I am jealous that you "found" one.  :-)

Thanks!  I think if you spot someone with a PUT bumper sticker, you would just do a lot of waving.  Maybe someone has an idea for a special signal to let people know we saw their sticker.

Why not put the bumper sticker on a magnet? That way you can put it on and take it off as needed.

That's what I did. I went to a sign shop and bought some magnetic scrap and put the sticker on that. I have one on my car and my wife's.

All Right!

We've printed and mailed over 5000 bumper stickers and I've yet to see one on the road.

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones, I spotted her sticker and met Sandykayak on the street here in Miami, and spotted Rstaffords sticker at Long Key Sp and met his family. I know Rob didn't join back up on PUT but Sandy did although I haven't seen any posts from her in awhile. It's exciting when you spot one.

We put a magnet on ours so we could move it to the bumper of the truck once we were popped up, and someone absconded with it!:(

August 2002 someone saw us leaving Acadia NP in Maine.  I have 2 on the PU, but don't put bumper stickers on the TV either.  I have made 4 magnetic ones for the TV.  Two were lost when I forgot to take it off at the automatic car wash and one just disappeared.  I have never spotted a bumper sticker unless it was on a group trip. :(

Dave I have used 8 of your bumper stickers:

2 on the old roof
2 on the new roof
4 for the TV

Hmmmmmm, maybe the bumper stickers need some kind of serial number since they are being taken.  Hope the thief mounted them to their popup, though.;)   Dave, do these bumper stickers come with any kind of warranty.:D

I've got the stickers on the tow vehicle and the pop-up.
I guess we don't get out enough for anyone to see us

I saw one in the recent PUT magazine where someone had damaged their tow vehicle bumper and had used the PUT bumper sticker to cover the damage.:eek: :D   Looked like a quick fix at a reasonable cost, to me.  

 
Has anyone else seen any PUT bumper stickers while traveling?
