Oliver Decals

[ChristianD]

I called Oliver last week wanting to get a set of the newer side text graphics, but they quoted $345.13 for just the two Oliver Legacy Elite II graphics, so I declined. 

My current trailer only has the front graphic, which measures 27" wide. 
I'd like to put the side Oliver text graphic on.  Can someone measure the width of that text decal and let me know how wide that is?  From what I can guess, that text is the size of the storage door, which is about 29".

I may just create the graphics file and have a local shop print them.

No graphics are currently included on a new build. This is in response to many of the latest buyers requesting the trailers be delivered naked. So there you go.  

One big naked egg! I can only see doing that for those who want their own custom graphics, like many here have done. I only want our Oliver to look like what Oliver produced when it was new. Crazy for an organization to lose their own artwork!

One should not have to pay for their advertising, at least not that much!

Thanks CRM for the measurement.  I made a graphics file for the front and side decals.  

Now I just need to find a print shop to print them 🙂

And, if they're only coming "naked" now, they should probably stop advertising the new models with front and side graphics.  Or maybe they're just now an upcharge on new models?

I was told by OTT that they did not have decals, nor the artwork, so perhaps they cannot add graphics anymore if they wanted to.

Most likely, they may not have the big swoosh graphic files if they shopped those out to a specialist.  If they did their graphics and decals in-house, then the person who used to do them must have left without any knowledge sharing.  My assumption is that the folks at their headquarters don't have the graphics or computer skills to reproduce them... it's not hard, if you know how to recreate them 🙂

Maybe I should sell them the files they need to recreate them, but after seeing what they wanted to charge me, I'd be less inclined to do that.

No Oliver logo on the nose would look really strange! We ordered our 2023 naked, and added our own graphic. We've had a lot of people ask what a "Curiosity" trailer was. We've heard "Is that some kind of Casita?", or the guy in Florida who looked it over rally well walking by, but wasn't inclined to chat. He returned the next day to tell me that he'd looked up Curiosity trailers, and that it was a really expensive trailer!

No Oliver logo on the nose would certainly seem to cut down on random inquiries and potential sales!

 

Here's a Curiosity brand trailer next to an Oliver at the Hungry Mother Fiberglass Rally. You can barely tell the difference! 🤣
