Wow, pretty ballsy sign. Thanks for sharing some of the emails you've gotten from non customers ;-).

Now I do want to post this as today we have already gotten some hate mail on it lol. The kicker is that I was told (I am not 100% sure as I have not seen myself) that there is adult book stores all over that part of 422! And our billboard is immoral ? lol


Message 1

To whom it may concern,
I was shocked to see the lewd, suggestive image on your billboard that was installed yesterday along 422 just west of Myerstown, PA.
Our town & surrounding areas are a very conservative group of people and we find this type of moral invasion extremely offensive.
I beg of you to consider the negative moral impact this has on our young men and fathers who are trying to live above the corruption that
is running rampant in our world and who are endeavoring to keep our family units together while most families are falling apart.
Please consider your accountability before God in this decision to display this suggestive image.
I welcome your response.
Sincerely
***********

Message 2

I’m writing to voice my opinion concerning the recently posted billboard on Lincoln Avenue in Myerstown, PA. I find the billboard to be vulgar, almost pornographic in nature, and entirely unnecessary to sell car parts. Myerstown is a conservative, family oriented area and families do not need to be exposed to this type of advertisement. I trust you might consider redesigning your ad or removing it completely. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I currently drive a GM Chevy Impala but your ad does not encourage me to buy parts from you.

I like it. I also like how the person said it was ruining families. Sorry to say Mr./Mrs Uptight, but sex sells. I am not even even buying anything, but I went to the website.
