Now a US flag in that situation I can understand, the camera man is just on the wrong side. 🫠
The fact, as I read on the internet, is that the wind was actually blowing left to right.

It used to be an option on the build page, guessing it still is, but I'm sure your Ineos parts department can probably order it for you.
Thx. It was not an option I noticed when I built out my Grenadier in September. My Trialmaster is a bit of an enigna. Long story short, it still shows as not having been produced on the configurator yet I picked it up on Thursday with one option I did not specify. Clearly I was moved up in to someones cancelled order.

Probably not. You’re a victim of the IA portal. I’ve had my truck since February and I’m still shown as in production so you can’t believe that awful system at all!

Flag etiquette is lost on a lot of people in the US as well. Sadly.
Perhaps uniting under flag etiquette is part of uniting in general. Something is needed!

BTW I'm not trying to throw stones. Canada is as off the rails and divided into unproductive echo chambers as the US seems to be. A flag *can* be a symbol of unity and something to stand for instead of parties and identities. (Or it can be an excuse and something to hide behind when behaving badly.)

The Union flag can indeed be upside down (it's a signal of distress).

Looking at the flag pole, the thick white stripe (there are thin and thick white stripes) points to the top 🇬🇧

I'm good with US flag etiquette, however, I did just learn that the Union Jack is not symmetric! Until I just looked it up I would have thought all the stripes were the same size and orientation.
