True story
Thought you would get a laugh out of your sign, decal, emblem or what ever it is called.. I put the Marine emblem on my truck in the 3 spots where the original “Excursion” emblem is,,, I wanted to replace the original, but,, your emblem was too small to cover the factory holes for mounting.
Yesterday I am pulling out of my drive at my wife’s place of business, “Halley’s K9s for Veterans” and 3 guys, my age were standing talking about something. One stopped me and asked, “is that an original model excursion?” well it is, was,, etc, so I said yes, he replied, when did they make a model for the Marines? I could not help myself,,thinking he was pulling MY leg, I said in reply,, “Why 2000 was the special year for the Marine special order edition,,, it even out sold the Eddie Bower edition that year, buy the look in his face, I then knew he believed every word I said, he turned to his buds and exclaimed,, “Hey guys,, look at this,,, a Marine edition Ford”.
Thanks Sgt Grit for the fun in my life,, I, as you can see, made a thin slice on a Vietnam ribbon and put it between the emblems in all 3 places, both sides and the rear,, looks great.
