KennyS 0 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Anyone know why the swoosh/swirls are no longer offered on the side of the 2022 Olivers? We liked them... Link to post Share on other sites
Jairon 165 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) I was told Oliver won't be offering the side graphics going forward; that said, things could change with enough demand.

BackofBeyond 891 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Now a $$$ option ?? Must be more trouble than it is worth. I can see the trend - as Oliver ramps up production, they have completely eliminated custom inquiries, and are standardizing options, while eliminating those that don't support the mission.... Certainly makes sense - Toyota championed the concept about 45 years back. Seems there are plenty of suppliers out there that will do the same... 1 Cindy, Russell and "Harley dog" .

All 2022 trailers will come with front and rear graphics only. The Oliver name and model are still included on the side of the trailer. 2019 Toyota Land Cruiser 2021 Oliver Elite II, Hull #748 Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators SeaDawg 1,658 Posted January 20 Moderators Share Posted January 20 (edited) That, I am really sad to see. The custom graphics have always been fun , and personal. I hope Oliver rethinks this. Edited January 21 by SeaDawg 1 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators Mike and Carol 1,347 Posted January 21 Moderators Share Posted January 21 Maybe enough folks were deleting the side graphics that they just decided to eliminate them all together? Texas Hill Country | Elite II #135 | Ram 2500 6.7L Link to post Share on other sites

I'm speculating a bit based on what I was told but I believe the swoops were manufactured in house and the machine used to make them started to break down. 1 2019 Toyota Land Cruiser 2021 Oliver Elite II, Hull #748 Link to post Share on other sites

NCeagle 482 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I'm really surprised they are doing away with the swooshes. 🤔 I know it's a personal thing, but we really like them for subtly breaking up the all white, "Mr. Clean" look. 1 John and Anita 2020 Oliver Elite II, Hull 688 Tow Vehicle: 2006 Silverado 2500HD Crew Cab. 6.6L Duramax Link to post Share on other sites

KennyS 0 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 I think we will design something of our own and have it put on after. I can see where if enough people were not wanting them that Oliver would decide to do away with them. Thanks for your replies. Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators Overland 1,735 Posted January 23 Moderators Share Posted January 23 I’m thrilled to see the end of the swoosh. And personally I think that the clean, all white look is great. I’d argue though that adding something to break up the side would have broader appeal. Just not another swoosh, please. There’s so much more that can be done with graphics than just slapping a random curvy line across the side. Snowball • The world's only spherical Ollie Link to post Share on other sites
