Independent Truck company is a skateboard truck manufacturer based in Santa Cruz, California. The company's iconic logo is the Alisee Pattee Cross independent trucking company, which came out in 1979 when Pope John Paul II was wearing the icon on his vestment on the cover of TIME magazine.
The Alisee Pattee Cross symbolizes regeneration, which means to bring new and more vigorous life to, bring into renewed existence, and give a new and higher spiritual nature to. The truck company was created in retaliation to and as a response to the lack of good skateboard trucks on the market at the time. So, essentially, this logo says that this company is bringing new life and a renewed existence to skateboard truck companies.
This logo connects with Montag's new life, or rebirth, and the fact that through religious references his quest for self-realization and renewal of self is illuminated.
Macnab's quality of the number four is expressed in the Alisee Pattee Cross, as it has four arms. The cross symbolizes the companies way of bringing together two things that did not go together well previously, as seen from the other skateboard truck companies that failed, into balance - spirit and material, energy and form. Intersecting lines emphasize relationship. The number four denotes strength and stability. Two aspects this company definitely has going for them.
