I can see that as causing more harm than good... A typical potential client is going to ask... "How's he get on the roof?"

He may have a ladder in there, but most people aren't going to think that hard, and will call the guy with the ladder on his roof-rack.

The thing is here in Austin the yuppies will eat that stuff up. He'll get jobs just because of that car....bet ya money. I thought of getting a gimmick car just because it's Austin and thus the weirdo capital of Texas. Maybe a hearse with the phrase "I'm interested in the life of your home" Or maybe a "Mystery Machine" like Shaggy and Scooby. I know silly and unprofessional looking but around these parts that can truly be the norm.

It's a great little car. Not your everyday driver but I bought it to promote my business. I feel perfectly safe, certainly safer than a bike or motorcycle. It's a Euro-spec vehicle with a Mercedes diesel engine that I run bio-diesel to the tune of mid to high 60's mpg. It'll max out at 90 mph on the freeway, but I like to put the top down and just cruise the local streets. Stop to fill up with gas and someone usually comes over and asks for a business card. My tools can easily fit, including the tele-steps ladder. It's not everyone's cup of tea.....but so what, it works for me!
