    I agree, I'd put ads on the rear doors and the skirts for $750 a month. I saw an ad on a trailer skirt for one of the mega carriers on I95 the other day and thought what a great idea for O/Os. I am currently working on a plan prior to contacting media placement agencies to see if there's any interest. If so, then I think for an O/O it is an excellent opportunity to get some extra revenue. A few years ago there was a company that paid people something around $100 per month to put ads on their cars - the pay was dependent on miles and routes driven. Intuitively I feel that it would be an easy sale to a media placement company because of the ROI visibility - the only issue is that ads would have to be national or an O/O would have to commit to certain regional ads within their lanes.

    Anyway, I'm still working the details but would be very interested in getting feedback from O/Os on their interest in allowing ads on their skirts and / or rear doors.

    The ads must be starting out slow. I have talked to a couple drivers and see Prime in my neck of the woods a lot and have not seen any ads yet...
