    Some may not like this, but some may so I figured I’d share.

    Used a measuring tape and level to get them exact on each side.

    A cool “replacement” for where the SR5 or Limited badge would go.

    I still don't agree with the union on the right, but looks good none the less.

    Union forward…

    IMG_9531.jpg

    I always have a hard time putting a flag on things that won’t be lit at night. I wanted to put a couple flag decals on my kayak but it is flipped upside down at times…so I didn’t. Some people are just more particular with how the flag is displayed I guess. In all reality it’s all of our flag and if you wanna fly it, do so! It’s yours to do with what you want.

    They're worn as patches on uniforms and helmets without being lit up. It's ok on our trucks. I do remember seeing a post about how it rubbed somebody the wrong way to see an American flag on a Japanese vehicle.

    Whoever was complaining, was also probably posting via their China made phone, wearing clothing all made in China.

    Take a walk to find the flag pole near you and look up at the flag, you see union on the left, then you look other side, it's on the right which same thing on OP's truck.

    Cars, planes, vans, trucks, etc have same method that you see in OP's photos. It is called "Union Forward"
