Hey now majority vote rules. Put up a poll give us 5 choices - winning design gets submitted or production and a group buy. Anyone ends up in the minority they can pay for any design they want on their dime. I really don't care what one gets produced, I really liked them all - but if we can get a "chunk" of us on the same page we save some $. Rest can special order. I'm ok with that.
My 0.02,
A group buy, only seems to save a few dollars (ie. 10% on $350 is $35) vs buying individually EXACTLY what each person wants.
If, we had 1 basic artwork design, but left (for example) the bottom text line open for customizing, it might work for everyone.
Perhaps, the 4 engine models, then an option to replace the standard engine model text with a custom message for extra $$$?

I have been following along the whole time. Fortunately I don't have an Excursion so the badge designs just look cool to me. Something I was wondering is making the badge similar to 05+ Super Duty's with the lettering and then underneath could be an FTE or engine displacement. IMO it would be more OEM styling but still a detailed piece. The mountain version would be killer on the back though.
I called and got VM so I just hung up again. I've just left the one message and assume they'll be gone until Monday at this point. I'm up for anything, but my ideas have been posted already as well. Also if it comes down to it even though my vote will ultimately lose I think voting is the best way to do it by far.
So, I have been thinking that maybe we need to have an Edition that follows Ford's proud history of using horses. So in the tradition of the Bronco, Pinto and Mustang, I present the Iron Horse (Clydesdale) Edition of the Excursion.

Just got off the phone with Shannon at BB and got some good news! Everything will be super easy to set up, and choices will be extremely limited (to 1) so ordering is either a yes or a no.
For the GB to work there can be NO VARIATIONS in designs/text/size.
We can each have our own color and there is no extra charge, HOWEVER no custom colors. The choices are basic red/blue/black/white but as I said we can have all different colors or have them sent raw and there is no extra charge.
To be able to qualify for the GB we have to have 10 (easy peasy) but if we hit 25 we qualify for a Bulk Buy.
I think 25 is possible, but who knows. I have more info to post as well but I'm hungry and Wendy will leave me and I won't get to eat if I don't go now.
