Need Help...One Ugly Orange Truck

I say keep it orange ! Back when i had company trucks, I had them painted corvette yellow. I always felt it was good to stick out in a crowd (unless of course, you were pulling up to a D.O.T. check).

Oh man, I love it. I'd throw some fresh Kubota orange on it to freshen it up and drive it proudly. I might even put a couple Kubota decals on it someplace like all the green bleeding JD lovers around these parts do!

If that colour was on a SuperBee you would be jumping for joy:D

They make trucks that way for id and for the "interesting" colour being a deterant to theft.
I think if you painted the box black, and maybe put a black stripe alone the bottom of the door it would look good.

You'd think that I'd get a break on the insurance..I thought that insurance companies charged more for "red" vehicles. I'd doubt anyone would WANT to steal this one.:)

Keep it orange and paint Jack-O-Lantern faces on the doors. Make each one different and put your name and employee names under them.

or not.

I do have to ask you have a Kubota that is orange would you consider painting it???????? i will assume no. So my question is what is wrong with colour of the truck?

I still think if you paint the box black and maybe black along the bottom of the door it would look great.
just my 2cents.

Well, I really do like Halloween anyway.

So my question is what is wrong with colour of the truck?

That much orange makes it look like I'm ready for a parade

I like orange for vehicles that might find themselves parked on a road because of the visibilty. It is also a great color to get attention. He just needs to paint it Kubota orange so people know it isn't a town/county truck (a two tone will accomplish that) and put his name either on the side of the doors or on the side of the box. What ever will get peoples attention.
