Here's the thing about stickers... In a few years they end up looking like crap.Then when you go to peel them off it's harder to do cause they've been baked on, and on top of that , the longer you wait then when u do pull them off, the paint is a different color underneath..Maybe not on white,per se...but in general. Do u guys also leave the dealer stickers on the back?

Fort mac isn't quite as warm as florida,lol...But a hairdryer will work, or if you leave the truck in the hot sun for a bit, should peel right off.
