I have never seen the point in advertising with badging a brand which you are not using. To me, it seems tasteless. It's like the guy's truck I saw awhile ago. He had a ford 6.oh no with cat emblems on it. Yeah he wishes.

THats kinda what i figured the opinion would be, i remeber that discusion about the cummins and cat stickers on the back of trucks. But in all seriousness why did the ol'boy farms start putting bulldogs on their dodges.

I have seen a few too back in the '70/'80's here in NC. Most of the guys were construction people.

The Mack bulldog is a very well known icon that stands for just all around toughness! Thats why people put them on things. Like mentioned above, "Built like a Mack Truck"

Ever think he is a heavy equipment operator?
Just a thought ;-P

And maybe the guys w/ the mack dogs work on macks, or drive them?
