I am looking at getting a mylar roll of funny things for my destination sign on my 26' neoplan.

Anyone got any ideas?

I found several sources for the rolls, and I was looking for the funny things.

Here's an interesting cheap way to do it, would want to use something better than a marker...

Guys guys guys (and gals)...You GOTTA be a (Picks)burgher or at least from Western "PEE YEA" to unnerstand that Shawn here drives "dunntun" everyday for a living. Didn't you notice on his web site that he called the Monongehela river "The Mon" on a few of his pages? (Okay Shawn, so maybe I am just a LITTLE bit homesick here.)

Based on the slang I have given the rest of the "nuts" here, I propose the following:

"The "Mon" estary"-Cept you two might have a problem getting women with that one...

The "Mon" ey Pitt? (Don't throw anything at me yet, I'm just getting warmed up here.)

Goin "Souse-ide" (Another famous part of the Burgh.)

"Wanna go for a sammich?" (Want to do lunch/join us?)

"Crick or Creek?" for Halloween time...

"It's a Burgh thing" (We're all city-fied Rednecks, you wouldn't unnerstand)

"Mt. Worshington" (What do you mean there is no "R" in the word "wash"?)

"Yunz going?" ( Short for "You ones"..Is there a party?)

Finally: You could go for the old standby name, one that made the Burgh great. (And a great name for a beer too.) Simply put: "Iron City" or "Steel City"

Nice going, Shawn. Your website is beautiful, classy, warm, informative, and friendly. No matter what you do, I'm sure that you and your bus will reflect the character that has made me homesick. You truly are an ambassador to what was once listed as "America's most Livable City".

Way to go...

Lets see!!! Destination sign statements.
Here are a few,
"Take next Bus"
"No Riders except Blondes" (wife may not like that one unless she's Blonde).
"Big Dog"
"My Wheel Borrow and Borrow"
"Broken Down in Style"
"Driver carries No Cash, Bus takes it all"
"Traded kids for Bus"
"Traded wife for Bus"
"Own Bus, No Cash"
oops! I think I see a trend here. LOL!
"My Castle"
"Don't Worry, Be happy!" :-)

I'd like to come up with something meaningful to say here: All I got to say is, the Holiday Rambler your bus ate, and the Winnebago it shat passed my RTS on the highway and gave me the bird for only doing 60.

Speaking of destination signs, I had thought it would be fun to have one of those digital scrolling signs on the back of the bus. Put up statements like "Youall to close" "You an't my wife so get off my ass" "Sorry about the smoke but de guberment won't buy me a new engin" "Slow down accident about to happen" "Go ahead and pass me gas is only $4.00 a gallon now" "What me worry" there are many others that I can think of hehehe Randall

How about "The left lane is empty--either pass me or get off my ass!" I sometimes want that on my wrecker.

About a year or two back, someone asked what everyone had named their bus. I copied them all, and have posted them here. My apologies to all for stealing and posting your names. I find them interesting and I thought these might be a mememory / creativity jogger to some other name / destination sign for your bus. Some of the ones at the end are names I have been considering for my H3-41
