trucks with bumper stickers...
perhaps its because of my age and what i thought would give my truck some flavor, but yes, it has many a sticker on it... figured there have got to be other people out there that have some stickers on their rides. god, ive seen beach buggies with several beach stickers for every year for the past 20 yrs on them!!!
heres my ford bronco aka the black bomber  and note the pivitol sticker of our existence on the far left (put it there because most people on 495 are passing me when im doing 75-80 and thus it may? be easier to see when ure doing 90  ) |

That's awesome! I love the larsen's one! I have a black suburban aka the "quahog cruiser" that has a bunch of beach stickers and one from margaritaville that's pretty cool as well as the s-b sticker. I need to get some rod holders for the front bumper but I don't knwo how much I need them with a suburban.

I removed all my decals. I think more than anything they give a good indication of what is inside your ride to steal. My next ride won't have a rod rack on it either. Best to fly under the radar whenever possible.

if ya throw a label on there trim the corners or else they will lift up and peel off.
=======================================
I hear ya on going incognito but i used to have a ford van ok
and i put the BEST All American hockey puck style locks on it on the inside on
all doors so that even if they broke windows and had tools they were not getting the doors open period.
Also, i do random sting operations, where i wait with my walkin tall stick in hiding waiting for a thief to even try....
with cell phone and camera in hand....  because i have been RIPPED blind more than once and one of these days i'm gonna catch them RED handed and they will be real SORRY. |

Real Vermonters don't have VT bumper stickers. They know where they live.

Exactly--that's why I don't have a CC sticker, or pay extra for a Cape and Islands license plate--they're the surest signs there are of a wash-ashore 
Everyone knows that a vehicle parked in a Canal lot at 1 AM belongs to a fisherman and might have some gear inside. That's why I only take the tackle I need to fish with, leave nothing else of value in my Jeep, and keep the doors unlocked--it's called "broken window insurance". |

OOOOOh,
I love the stickers...they have helped devalue my ride more than anything else. My pride and joy is a monstrous "I Love JUGS" sticker with a giant Bombardier sticker in the back window, Fenwick, Cuttyhunk Sportsman's Club, SB.com, Salty's, Habs, Dropkicks, etc.
Now we only need a "How many bald men like fishing" thread and I'll be in heaven.

"Take back Vermont" stickers are popular. But I've also seen "Take Vermont forward" which was inevitably followed by "Take Vermont from behind". I'm not kidding. LOL. |

I figure if you got no bumper stickers you are hiding something.
I need some of the ones G. Carlin had on his car
Caution I brake for optical illusions

I have some stickers on the rear window of the pickup and a homey-made rod rack in the bed. I'm still waiting for the day I return to my truck and find the rod-rack thru my windshield  ...As I make my trek back to my truck, I always wonder/worry bout that.......I don't fear getting attacked, I fear having my truck stolen or damaged!! My wife would never find some of the places I hide
& - One thing I learned from some crooks I kneow, before leaving the truck...I try to make it look like I'm not hiding anything in the cab.....I try to make it real obvious that there's nothing to steal but the truck itself....
..and Johns' right, I'm SURE the stickers on my truck have saved me numerous times when parked in some..  ..places.
I like the stickers, they keep me wishin I was fishin...I only put em on the glass though, not the body/bumpers  |
 ... it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

I own and have my stickers. But only a lonely striper decal on my 94 f-150 flareside.
I use to own a 84 Bronco lifted with some beefy tires..Damn I miss her.

stickers also help indentify individuals, which I guess can be good or bad
Good because it can help identify friendlies when you pull up to a spot, but bad because your spot could be compromised even if you never told a soul you were there! all it takes is for somebody to drive by the spot, see your car, then post it on the interblab, to use a Clammer term.
