There are few cheaper ways of customizing a Chevy Silverado pickup truck while at the same time demonstrating pride in the U.S. than by fitting a product that GM Authority recently discovered for sale on Amazon.
It’s a decal consisting of individual letters making up the word Chevrolet, with a neat twist: the coloring matches that of the United States flag. From the C to the start of the V, there are white stars on a blue background, and from the V to the end of the T there are contrasting red and white stripes. The overall effect seems pretty cool to us.
All the letters are self-adhesive, and when fitted to the debossed tailgate of the 2019 and newer Chevy Silverado, they protrude from the surface by one 16th of an inch. Manufactured and sold by Tonet, which is based in the province of Liao Ning in northeast China, the decal is priced at $23.99.
The decal is suitable for 1500, 2500HD and 3500HD versions of the T1 Silverado, including the 2019 Chevy Silverado, 2020 Chevy Silverado and 2021 Silverado.
As of this writing, only 13 units of the decal are in stock, and it is not yet clear whether Tonet plans to produce any more. The potential market for the item is surely large enough: despite complications arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, Chevy Silverado sales in the U.S. rose by three percent in 2020 to 594,094 units, of which 436,281 were the 1500 (light-duty) model.
The truck therefore accounted for 34 percent of Chevrolet sales and 23 percent of GM sales in the U.S. Together with its corporate cousin, the GMC Sierra, the two GM trucks outsold the Ford F-Series by 847,110 units to 787,422.

Nothing says US pride better than trademark-infringing Chinese products sold cheap on Amazon!
American colors on truck made in Mexico. Cool.
Mexico is a nation within North America…..would you prefer your truck built in Canada?
I don’t want my car built by canadian liberals, mexican illegals or chinese covid spreaders.
VIVA MEXICO CABRONES
Hell yes , I’d take Canadian made products over mexican anyday
both are bad countrys against America
“CoUnTryS” Dude, 1st of all “America” is a continent, and 2nd you can’t even spell the word correctly.
So this is a Chinese-made decal of the Stars and Stripes and aren’t these trucks often made in Mexico. Makes a lot of sense.
Well over half of them are made in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Nowadays this Will offend someone.
Liberals hate America. And Mary LOVES liberals.
Mary will take your money for a vehicle regardless of your political beliefs. That is how capitalism works.
Be careful ordering from China, if product sucks, Hell to get money back…..Warned! Buy USA.
The tailgates still look cheap they took off the Chevy badging only to show stamped cheap lettering on them
I tried looking up Tonet on line and could not find it. Can you supply better information on this Chevrolet tailgate sticker. I would like to get one for my truck.
Yawn …buy f150
