    Less is more is my opinion. After removing all the adhesive badges and bed stickers, I even felt the need to remove the black vinyls on the door pillars.

    Just cleaned mine off the tailgate this afternoon. Once it’s all cleaned and polished I probably pick a few new ones to go back on.

    I’m going with the clean look this time. I used to have stickers from different places I’ve been plus a US flag. Twice, the flag has been scratched up/off my old truck and left scratches in the glass. I used to have ones from guns I have or organizations. I have had two friendly chats from POs with bait questions like, “Can I see your...”. I’ve decided it’s better to not tell strangers about your likes and affiliations. Too many nuts out there who take it upon themselves to try to correct your belief system. I don’t want any conflicts nor my truck trashed.

    I was coming home from skiing Mammoth in my 90 Truck and stopped to get gas in Bishop. Some nut-job local woman came up to me and was in my face yelling at me how “They didn’t want my kind up here. “ “We white, we Americans, you gotta get yo ass outta here.” I was so shocked, I didn’t know what to say. The insults went on for a few minutes until I finally said, “ My kind, what kind do you mean ?” She yelled, “ You n......”. I just stood there with a stupid look on my face. I was speechless. Someone from the station chased her off. I was having such a good day too. I’m blonde and blue eyed, so it seemed so surreal. I wasn’t so much mad as I was weirded out. The guy at the station thought it was the university sticker on my back window. She figured I lived in LA (and it wasn’t too long after the Rodney King riots) and drew some sort of meth-fueled conclusion.
    Too much information. I’m a little more grey man these days.

    I can relate. I used to have a decal with Hello Kitty holding an AK on my previous 4wd. Hello Kitty, for some groups is almost a religious figure. A member of one of these groups came-up to me at a gas station in Orange County and started yelling at me about how Hello Kitty represents everything which is good and pure in this world. I just stared back and after getting-over the shock that I was actually about to have an argument with someone over Hello Kitty, I simply said "Mine's holding a gun".

    Careful with that, it's break in time to steal guns. Why advertise you're holding a gun.

    If you like stickers put them on. Other peoples opinions don't matter as much as yours does.
    Would suggest keeping them off the paint though. Back window is always safe.
    I love drag racing and have a couple related to that on my back window.

    I have one sticker.... it’s from a friends local business that I strongly support.

    My opinion on stickers, if you like them put them on. If not, leave them off.

    I did have a serious conversation with a friend about his stickers on his Jeep that I think was important. He had several gun related stickers (Sig, HK, NRA, etc.). I suggested to him that his stickers were an invitation to break into his truck. Were I a criminal, he would be a target.

    Like, so many.
    If I like the product, I don’t mind letting other people know about a good company.
    I have a couple on my back window, but most are on the box where I keep my recovery gear. Outdoor type stickers go on my water bottles.

    I just don’t get what it is with some people who think they need to “correct” other people’s thinking. I don’t know why they can’t mind their own business. The world would be a better place.

    I have always liked stickers and have a pile of them, some going back a long way. When I worked at Super Shops in the early 80s I used to grab lots of them out of product boxes, so if you bought something there at the Azusa or Ontario store and didn’t get any stickers, I may have them.

    When I was a kid, it was popular to cut up the old In N Out stickers (the large rectangular ones) to say different things. Burn N Out urge was popular. I had In r Butt urge on my car once, when I was 16. My Mom saw it and about lost her mind because my grand parents were over. Pretty sure gramps saw it because he just had that “Oh, I get it” smirk on his face. Mission accomplished, I guess, I did it just to get a reaction from the uptight adults.

    I completely agree. I just removed the door pillar vinyls. I never knew they were there until it was pointed out on TW. Once I noticed them, I had to remove them. These trucks look so clean de-badged and sticker-less.

    Yep, I want to see more paint and less sticker. Couldn't agree more on the clean look. It also would have bothered me down the road if the paint underneath was a different shade compared to the rest of the truck.
