Be careful what you ask for!!

Heck, I even peel the dealers decal off of everything I drive!
No decals for me, none.

I do that because their not paying me to advertise.

I had these plates on my truck since 2016, living in loony-left Chicago. Not only did it not get vandalized or harassed, I got countless thumbs-up, positive comments and a few requests for selfies in front of the bumper. Someone even left me an approving note under the wiper once. Go figure.

Bloomington is one of the worst places in Indiana for Left Wing vandalism!
Sad, I really used to like Bloomington, but that was 30 freaking years ago!

Bloomington is a great town to be from.

I used to think one county south was far enough…now, I’m not so sure.

No stickers or slogans for me. People may become interested enough to try and talk to me. Ick.

The only thing on my truck are the Ford logo's. Better than a deflector or shields from Star Trek!

Curious if you conceal/cover company logos on your clothing and other products too since they don’t pay ie-

Levis/Wrangler/Carhart/Nike/Adidas/
Hanes/Fruit of The Loom Craftsman/Snapon/Glock/Winchester/
Colt/Burris/Vortex/Prarie Farms/Kelloggs

He said he removes the dealer's decal not the manufacturer's name.

I've never put any stickers on my cars ever. I just don't like them. I put my pro-2a stickers/magnets on my gun cabinets.

I don't usually either, but couldn't resist a small Tail of the Dragon decal.

I know that, but it’s the same principle

Having worked for dealerships in the past, and seeing what I did, I don't need to advertise for a bunch of thieves, thank you very much.
And yes, I don't wear clothes that blatantly display their logo all over.

Until recently I had numerous gun related stickers on my truck. I started getting a lot of "compliments" and "comments" from people I didn't really wanna stand and have a conversation with. So to make it stop I reluctantly peeled off all of the stickers. This newfound anonymity feels good I must say...

I know that, but it’s the same principle

Not really, I buy “x” brand because I like their clothes or they fit better or whatever reason, but I buy from a car dealer because they have the vehicle I want at the price I’m willing to pay, I don’t peel my ford logos off my truck, but the first thing to go are dealer stickers.

 

[BankShot]

I know that, but it’s the same principle

Not really. The dealer decal is more like having a Walmart decal on your Levis, but it's all good man.

Not really. You are comparing apples to watermelons. But don’t get me wrong, I like both apples & watermelons. A Walmart decal on your Levis seems like you are referencing quality as a comparable (although woke company Levis I don’t think is a notch up).

But my comment to Michigan Slim’s:
“I do that because their not paying me to advertise.” Wasn’t pertaining to quality.
To his post, I thought that would be a burdensome life to cover/conceal virtually any & all products that “…their not paying me to advertise”.

Nope, I was not referencing quality. Insert any store or product you want. It has to do with the difference between a dealer/store and a manufacturer of the product. As @Frosty stated above he takes the dealer stickers off his truck, not the Ford logos. Just like @Michigan Slim said he removes the dealer decals. He didn't say anything about the manufacturer's logos. At least we can agree on the fact that both apples and watermelon are good. LOL.

I do take the model, engine size, etc off my vehicles. Not because I don't want to advertise, but because I like the clean look of a debadged vehicle.

 

[FishersCPA]

There was not a firearm in the vehicle probably. Does anyone actually think that they would access it through the TOP part of the back window? Obviously, it was a libtard just vandalizing the vehicle because laws do not apply to them.

The vast majory of the window is shattered, the area with the windshield wiper didn't move, but it's not the "top" of the window on the left side. Everything below the missing glass is lift gate frame or tailgate.

Could have a long gun in a case in the back. Could have been a laptop. Could have been a ticked off girlfriend, car vandalism is a popular method of announcing break-ups in some communities...

Who knows, but it's one reason I'm SUV-averse. Too much glass, not enough places to store things securely and out of sight. I want a trunk or a truck with a lockable bed cover so whatever I want to carry is out of sight and out of mind. Plus I don't tick off my wife. That way I get to keep both halves of my vehicle.

I fly my flag.

Did have break in at office parking lot twice. Once got dirty gym clothing and a medium nice watch. Second was my wallet.

Both defendants testified that they were targets of opportunity (I was only vehicle in parking lot at 4AM), nothing to do with guns.

was behind a Beemer the other day, the plate said CZ FOID
