They apparently hold the rights to the logos. There was a guy on a FB group that was making really nice laser etched replicas of the trim badges. He stopped doing it because a few others let him know that they had received cease and desist orders from Ford. I think it's trivial myself. I mean if you think about it they technically don't own the rights to the names Big Bend, Outer Banks or Badlands. They definitely have bigger fish to fry. But Ford is funny about that kind of stuff. It is my understanding that you need to get Ford's approval to start any sort of Ford vehicle club.
Amen. Nor does Ford own the rights to black diamond or first edition or a horse. Black diamond is a ski track level of difficulty and many cars and other products have been first editions. Maybe WildTrak but I doubt it.
I checked with Ford Motor Co. directly and their "new ideas" site before releasing my company's traceable security labels we exclusively offer only to bronco and bronco sport owners. I also let Ford know if any issues at anytime with the label designs my team and I created to let me know so we can make changes quickly. Never heard anything.
Im also not marketing "Ford" or "Bronco" names and we're not marketing them on a dedicated website, in public or traditional social media. Plus my product isn't visible unless you open doors/hood/tailgate.
See pic. This security product is ONLY available to Bronco Nation members!!
