Would Mexicans consider a different font for the name displayed on their truck's back window? It's very gothic looking and I can't make heads or tails out of the letters. Otherwise....it's nice.
It might be more legible if they weren't all caps. Some lower-case could possibly help.
I can't believe I cannot find a picture of this phenomenon.
All My friends know the Lowriders!
I know one thing Art LAbelle show has every Mexican in East L.A do song dedications..
To Carmello from Marsella:
I want to dedicate the Song I will always love you by the Dells... Still as Sunday night L.A station..pretty funny..
Well, I doubt it's "Toyota." Don't know why, but Hispanic people in the media here, who never even spoke Spanish at home, cannot say the word "Toyota."
They call everything "Tay - ota." Like it's spelled "teoda" or something. Stabien.
I always thought it would be funny for someone named O'Malley to do that on their back window.
I've been readin through the back columns of "Ask a Mexican" and that issue is actually addressed here:
