That settles it for me.

Star, baby!

BTW, did you know the star emblem has a biblical origin? It represents a "morning star" referenced to a biblical passage.

I always thought it was to symbolize powered vehicles on land, sea and in the air.

i think I might keep my star it's nice to have that big old star in front. Kind of a "High Sign of Power" It's nice cause the other day coming home from work I was messing around with a buddy of mine and he said he looked in his rear view mirror and the last thing he saw before I passed him was the "star" LOGO. LOL

And so it is ! ;)
Btw., another purpose the star serves, if your driving, the star will line up with the shoulder of the road.

I wish I had the link to where it talked about the origins of the star being a biblical reference. It had lots of pics as well and seemed credible. However, it was the first time I'd read anything about the derivation of the emblem.
Apparently, I need to read more, but I'm persuaded by your numbers that my info is wrong or only part of the story. Land, sea and air it is!
