I've wondered about that, too. I've seen a few TV commercials that had the General Lee, & it's always been placed on top of a car hauler so the Stars & Bars can't be seen....will they eventually paint it over???

I know it rolls off the tongue easily, but.....
Excuse me, but the Southern Cross seen on the top of the car in the Dukes IS NOT and NEVER HAS BEEN the "Stars and Bars".
Imagine the Stars and Stripes with 3 stripes (those would be BARS) same blue field...fewer stars. The Stars and Bars LOOKS LIKE the Stars and Stripes! That's why Beauregard asked the Cary sisters and cousin to sew the Battle Flag in the first place, because the First National(Stars and Bars) was confused with Old Glory on the battlefield.
