Well, we drove to reno NV from castle rock CO to visit my 95 year old mother in law who just gave me this truck a month ago and 15 minutes before we got to her house she passed away. The world lost a truly great woman and she will be sorely missed. Not like it wasn't expected but wish we could have seen her one more time. I am going to stencil her name "Aldean" on the tail gate in remembrance of her, any ideas of where to get one?

I'm sorry for your loss. Almost any sign or vinyl shop should be able to draw up a design in minutes and print it out in any size and color vinyl you could ever want.

If you were in SE Texas, I'd hand letter it for you....
Should be able to find a sign shop to get it done though. Anyone with a Cricut machine could do it....

Sorry for your loss.

There are a bunch of people online that sell custom vinyl lettering for signs, boats, race cars etc.

Even guys on Etsy as well. A lot of them will do custom stuff.

Friend of mine had one of them make a magnet set of door numbers for my truck.

Oh man, I’m sorry to hear that. My condolences to you and yours.

Might I suggest a local artist that could hand paint it on (if you’re looking for a more permanent style). I’ve seen lots of guys and gals that do the “shop lettering” on door sides and something like that could be kinda neat. Just a thought tho.

Sorry for your loss. My MIL turns 90 next month. Like you I lucked out in the in law category as well.
