McLean, VA (July
27 2013) - Before choosing which truck banner
frame system is right for you, stop and calculate
the total cost of ownership for the banners and
frames. Truck sign systems weighing 225 pounds up
to 450 pounds for 2 frames and 2 banners on a 53'
truck will cost 2.5 to 4 times more in fuel loss
than TRUCKADS® INVISA-FRAME SYSTEM, in just the first year.
Spread that cost out over 3 years and the cost difference
is enormous, while TRUCKADS® INVISA-FRAME cost no more
than the original investment due to aerodynamics
offsetting the weight of the banner and frame materials.
