mount like bike racks Easy on, easy off, and highly visible from behind Sep 10, 2007 People have been slapping ads on vehicles in one form or another since the invention of the wheel, and yet the search for new ways to adorn cars and trucks with messages seems never to stop. In fact, that’s how the idea came about. “I saw a bike rack on the back of a car, and I thought, ‘Man that’d be great to attach a sign to,’” says Greg Pilon, president of Ads 4 Tow, the San Diego company that came up with this new system. “There’s nothing out there that’s great that's not permanent or doesn't involve wraps,” says Pilon. “People want something they can take on and off.” Right now the signage comes in three different sizes: 24-by-36 inches for smaller cars, 24-by-48 inches for minivans and small SUVs, and 30-by-60-inches for full-sized trucks and SUVs. The main restriction is that the system can’t use signs that include any sort of lights, which would violate local traffic codes. But Pilon says that can be remedied to some degree by using reflective vinyl.
