Default Car wraps

I saw this in a sign forum and thought it was a great idea and pretty cost effective.

Sorry.

I am not affiliated with this company at all. I just thought it looked good so I found their home page. I'm sure lots of companies offer this service.

Car Wraps have been around for a number of years. I plan on wrapping mine some day soon. In my area we have to be careful as we have many Parkways where commercial vehicles are banned from operating. A commercial vehicle would be that which either has a Commercial Plate (Tag) or that which has lettering over 3" tall. We are still waiting on clarification with wraps though. The original intent of the law was to prevent heavy vehicles (including Pick Ups, RV's and cars/suv's pulling trailers) from damaging the roadway. Today we have light weight Pick Up trucks and Heavy SUV's Once I know I can continue to run the Parkways, I have a wrap all ready to go.

By the way: I have heard some homeowners do not like it when you pull into their driveway with one of these. They don't want anyone knowing until the sign goes up.

New York is starting to sound like a scary place to do business.

Personally, my daily driver is also a personal vehicle along with a business vehicle. I don't want to have to drive around town all the time with a wrap on my car.

If I had a dedicated business vehicle then perhaps.

I have a friend that owns an Apt locating company that swears by his wrapped vehicles. Hes been trying to get me to do it for a while, might go for it yearly next year to test it out.

My main issue is that I'm a very aggressive driver.

Imagine calls that you think are leads coming in that are actually someone screaming that you cut them off.

"But...but....are you or someone you know looking to buy a home?"

Crazy driving used to generate leads. Now that's smart!

That would be very likely in my case. lol Guess I'd have to let one of my agents run around in it or just be aware that I have to drive extra slow.
