Usage
1

The mark floats

No boxes, plates, or frames around the logo — ever. It sits directly on ink or on a photograph.

2

No yellow

The fleet is yellow; the brand is not. On anything printed or digital, the mark's linework is metallic gold — never the old yellow.

3

Two versions, one mark

Gold-lined black on dark grounds; the black-and-yellow original survives only on the trucks until they're rewrapped.

4

Don't rebuild it

The road-S lockup is the identity. No re-typesetting, no stretching, no recoloring beyond the approved versions.

5

Clear space

Keep a margin around the mark equal to the height of the letter A — nothing inside it.

6

Red is structure

Bands, bars, chips, and buttons — red is seen, not read. Small text on dark is never red; that work belongs to gold.

7

Forms on clean white

Every form sits on the white ground — black text, red labels, red submit. No exceptions.

Type

Oswald — the voice.

Inter — the working text, plain and legible.

No serifs, no italics — accent words sit upright in gold.

Numbers are standard figures — 1, 2, 3 — stamped on red chips.
