Every time I get approached at a gas station or in my own driveway.... they all want to know where I got it, who makes it, what year is it, etc, etc.
I realized I had no logos on the outside of my coach other than the GMC spare tire cover, and Recherché on the side.
The very polite little old lady that stopped at the house this last Sunday said she stopped when I wasn't home, wrote down "Recherché" and then went home to research my coach.
Well needless to say she caught me on Sunday, I was vacuuming the carpet when I noticed an SUV stop and this gal walks up to the door and wants to know everything about the coach because she couldn't find anything Recherché pertaining to my coach.
To save everyone a little time I went ahead and replaced the busted emblem at the front of the coach. When I purchased it the "G' was there, the "M" had a piece missing, and the "C" was nowhere to be found. To top it off they weren't part of the original logo that was on the front of the coach.
Here comes eBay, found what I was looking for which turned out to be the grille emblems from a 1991 GMC Sonoma. There were 3 on eBay, all of them $49.95. Waited and got lucky on a bidding auction and got these for $16.
No question now what may be following you down the road.....
