TTAC Logo Submissions Pt. 5

by Robert Farago

It’s the last day of our redesign our non-existent logo competition, and the submissions have been anything but non-existent. TTAC’s Best and Brightest have answered the call in force, demonstrating a depth of design talent that would shame, well, me. Given the volume of submissions, I’ve created a new category: Logo Contest (no points for creativity there). If you want to see all the designs, simply click on “News,” then select “Logo Contest” from the drop-down menu. As promised, TTAC’s crack [smoking] staff will wade through all the work to find the ten or so that best encapsulate The Truth About Cars’ editorial stance and style. Then we’ll put them to a popular vote. Meanwhile, thanks to all those who invested their time, effort and passion into this contest on our behalf. (Excluding the selfish gene theory.) It’s reassuring to know that the TTAC brand resonates so well with its owners.

    I look forward to seeing which will be of the selected ≤10.

    These have all been great submissions, every one of them. You guys have quite a challenge in deciding the best. I really like the approaches that includes some subtle humor or fun in the spirit of what TTAC is all about... that's what I was going for with the license plate logo. #16, #25 and #36 all put a clever twist on the "uncovering the truth" concept that I really like. Having said all of that, my favorite of this set has to be #39. It's beautifully rendered, subtle, and stands on its own as a graphic. It would be just as effective in the TTAC brand colors, as a black and white (or grayscale) piece, and would look really cool on a t-shirt or ballcap.

  • Varezhka Maybe the volume was not big enough to really matter anyways, but losing a “passenger car” for a mostly “light truck” line-up should help Subaru with their CAFE numbers too.
  • Varezhka For this category my car of choice would be the CX-50. But between the two cars listed I’d select the RAV4 over CR-V. I’ve always preferred NA over small turbos and for hybrids THS’ longer history shows in its refinement.
  • AZFelix I would suggest a variation on the 'fcuk, marry, kill' game using 'track, buy, lease' with three similar automotive selections.
  • Formula m For the gas versions I like the Honda CRV. Haven’t driven the hybrids yet.
  • SCE to AUX All that lift makes for an easy rollover of your $70k truck.
