Both date from the mid 80's, older than the truck itself! <br /><br />I removed them from my earlier truck, an '83 Mazda diesel, using a razor blade and heat gun. The diesel was rated @57 hp(!), which was the basis for the speed sticker :D<br /><br />For a very short time, I had an "I (heart) nonsmokers" sticker on that Mazda, which had a dual focus for me: as a diesel driver, it annoyed me to see others who clearly had no idea how to manage their throttle (black smoke), and being allergic to nicotine. Being screamed at in traffic quickly convinced me that it was a bad idea to put anything even remotely suggesting I might disapprove of their life choices.<br /><br />I put it on just before leaving for a trip down to Willow Springs Raceway. It didn't last the whole 700mi+ round trip. I scraped it off at the motel when I arrived. The animosity displayed by the public was frightening. I've never seen another one of those stickers displayed.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722792638246578812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-42781766938660966422013-04-28T21:32:18.727-04:002013-04-28T21:32:18.727-04:00My current horseless carriage is an Olds Intrigue ...My current horseless carriage is an Olds Intrigue 2000.<br />Stickerless.<br />My previous was an '89 Isuzu Trooper, NRA Life Member on the driver's wing window (remember them?) behind the tint.<br />Nothing else.<br /><br />gfaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-89330886390363187032013-04-28T18:36:47.710-04:002013-04-28T18:36:47.710-04:00It's OK to shudder nowadays at your younger se...It's OK to shudder nowadays at your younger self, but it's even better that your younger self actually DID IT and frightened the Hippies.<br />I only have a Humuhumunukunuku fish sticker on my truck.NotClauswitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14358707844087117280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-25283924830310034962013-04-28T17:55:26.518-04:002013-04-28T17:55:26.518-04:00There is, of course, the general-purpose bumper st...There is, of course, the general-purpose bumper sticker, whose message is always true:<br /><br />They're Lying.Justthisguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17277333206171756636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-48007301691559735092013-04-28T17:48:38.863-04:002013-04-28T17:48:38.863-04:00The more you write about your Forester, Tam, the m...The more you write about your Forester, Tam, the more I want one.<br /><br />I was riding back from church a coupla weeks ago, and pointed one out to my driver and his wife.

As much as I am tempted by Darwin, Wallace tetrapods and the T-Rex eating Jesus fish, I pass. <br /><br />Frankly, anytime I think of putting a sticker on my ride, I remember that people with NRA LIFE MEMBER or I HEART OBAMACARE stickers emblazoned on their rides usually 1) Drive like douchecanoes and 2) Usually ignite some desire in me to get in front of them of ruin their driving day. <br /><br />I resist that urge <i>most</i> of the time. However, I remain convinced that most people who will advertise their beliefs on the back of their ride are always ready to shove them in your face. I prefer to be left alone, as such I don't advertise my personal beliefs. Nor do I feel obligated to shove them in the faces of others. <br /><br />In fact, I am thinking of removing the only emblem on the trunk that identifies the model of my car ("Mazdaspeed3"), because everyone on the planet who reads it, then comes up alongside and wants to drag race. ~Insert eye roll here~. It gets a bit old when every kid on the planet wants to race. <br /><br />-Rob<br /><br />WV: ctinchu persons, are those almost, but not quite followers of cthulu?
