Default Re: 'Survivor' Term Comes Under Fire

Let's just call it Survivour with the accent mark.
Or Supervivor for the survivor supercar.
I believe that like I said before they have waited too long to defend their trademark. Because Bloomington did not go after everyone (did they go after anyone?) in the past and defend it, I do not believe that they have a case. I am not a lawyer but did study some trademark and patent law.
If they would have coined a new word or phrase such as "BG survivor" or "Gold Survivor" or Bloomington Survivor I could see the infringment but come on.
Just write the ad as
"69 Yenko 15,000 miles all original paint and interior has survived untouched."
Then it seems as though they really have no case.
