I think this is more what's going to happen than anything

N'est-ce pas?

I get what you are saying, for me it made more sense to be pulling towards the center of the Ex. Thus the right facing horse...

Honestly it is a bit tit for tat whether it is left or right, either way would be cool!

if the horse is pulling into the wind shouldn't the letters be angled the other direction like the factory? That is what I meant as far as switching driver and pass side. Maybe it's just me. Thanks again for doing all the work on these for us. I just checked mine and realized they used the same badge for all 3. so maybe not make the pass side like factory?

Very few of the designs we tried would work and look right all the way around the Ex. I have the letters leaning into the wind like the horse, they all seem to follow the same line, and, at least to me, it is pleasing to the eye.

Am I the only one who loves the original Excursion font and the chrome/polished look? Just not a fan of the milled/dull look

For those of use who like the Mountain option that was presented back at the beginning, is there a way we can get the vector file to order a set of badges? I really appreciate all the great talent and work, but the mountains for me are the only options for this great truck.

FYI, all of these designs are supposed to be the polished/chrome look. I just did not take it that far in the design phase. Just think of the grey as polished.
