Pickup Decal

If you must rebadge, I'd keep it something obscure or "neutral" in the sense of it doesn't give any indication of what you do(like the Aint Skeered sticker).

Anything indicating what hobbies you participate in is like a giant flashing sign to meth heads that says "BREAK IN HERE FIRST". Always makes me laugh when I see guys rolling around with sitka/BHA/archery stickers all over their trucks... its not an "if", its a "when".

If you live in a mainly conservative area the political stickers can be okay, but I wouldn't risk it living where I live. Yeah... if I catch them doing it of course they're gonna be in for it, but that's just the thing - it never happens when you expect it. Why give them any reason to break into my shit over anyone elses? Just some food for thought.

I’ve considered this and it’s a somewhat valid point. On the other hand, I think the pickup itself is a dead giveaway. Not many people are dropping 2-3k on a topper if they don’t fish or hunt. Throw on some nice A/Ts and it’s pretty easy to guess the driver’s hobbies.

Exactly how I see it.

Plus I don't think the average person knows what Sitka/First Lite/Filson/Orvis/etc is... The wife and I were having dinner with a couple the other night and she asked him what Sitka is. I've got stacks of various premium gear, and she had no idea.

My boss, who grew up on a MT ranch and lived there for ~30 years, asked me what my Sitka cap meant last year. Couldn’t help but laugh at him.
 
Big fan of NO decals as to not persuade someone there’s any Swarovski or rifles etc to steal out of it.
 
I put a Biden/Harris sticker where the decal for my canopy was and no complaints. Putting something California related on next.

I’m in Idaho.
