Size, font, for name?
I started to try to go through all the google results but I never got there...
What font and what font size is used for trailer names (in various locations- if you tell me the font and size you used, please tell me where the name is, or better yet, show me a picture.)

I mean the one they use for personal trailer names. I didn't think it was the same.

I guess I need height more than anything else-height depends on location, though. (Might change the font.)

I've seen all kinds of different fonts and sizes too. This is where you can make what you choose to be all about YOU.

I just don't have a very good idea what would look good in various places as for size. Thinking either under the front window or more likely, back, and by the door. I'd be totally guessing and if I see one I like and know the size, it will help.

Best I can do.
Looks to be same font as "Escape".
Don't know where you have room or what you are going to call it. I like short and I don't like mucking it up with different fonts.

Different fonts of the same size can appear quite different size-wise. I'd photograph the area you want to place the name ( with a tape measure in place ) and get advice from the firm that will create the type.
Or, just don't do it. Sounds good to me.
Could call it "McMuffin".

Oh, that's a good idea. Or I could try just printing it out and taping paper up and see what looks good.
