This is the banner that I'm thinking of hanging from My GMC awaning at the Mucial Car/ Corvette Nationals as it sets in the ballroom for 3 days. Anyone have any other ideas that gets this thought across with less words? Need to get this to the banner company Mon PM. Bob Dunahugh

I don't see a banner either, but how about something like this in addition to a banner.

I guess I should have clarified. Those are the words that I want to put on a banner. And that I'm asking if anyone has a shorter. Or more clear way to get that thought across to the people at this event. About 30,000 people pay $25 each to view these cars on display. I'm trying to get our GMC's exposed to more markets that are out there. Thus help with membership to GMCMI. And help keep the value up on our GMC's. These are the things we all need to do so these GMC's maintain some value. We need to have these showing up at car events. Large, and small. Bob Dunahugh

Ok, I understand now.

I'd suggest not calling them a tow truck. Instead something like this:

These Classic GMC Motor Homes Can Make Your Car Event Into A family Affair and tow your car too.

Bob,

I suggest that you change the Tow Trucks to Tow Vehicles.
Like the GMC sign I saw way back when (and don't recall seeing again),
"Built like an Airplane - Drives like a Car."

Kind of like I have to keep telling people - It is not a truck with a house on the back.

And there is always a variation of what Jim Bounds says about them.

As in the GMC can be the two vehicle for getting your show car to an event or race. It's not how I would put it, but it does make a point about the GMC being a classic, a place to stay, and a work vehicle. l

That is What I do!

I tow A 1976 Austin Mini (on a trailer) behind mine. and when we get to the AutoSlalom event the GMC becomes the timing and scoring van Smile
