    Am I the only one who stacks the IFTA stickers right on top of each other? Same as with license plate tags for my personal vehicles.

    For years when Texas used the stickers on plates we had a theft problem. People would peel off your sticker and put it on their own. Stacking them made it easier for them to grab at them and get the new one off. The state started recommending that we peel rhe old and then after applying the new one slice up the new one with a sharp razor blade so they would only come off in pieces if stolen.

    I buy those stainless steel squares like 6x6” and put the stickers on those. The glue they use on those things are like world class. You need a decal removing rubber wheel and a drill to get rid of those.

    I don't. It looks dumb. Like having fifty hard hat stickers because you think it makes you look salty. Only my own opinion, of course.

    I do.

    And now I believe I'll quit stacking them, lol.

    Easy enough, I don’t go into them

    I remove old ifta, but I hate stickers to begin with, have mine mounted on the lower corner of the wing windows, then ny hut, MA inspection, and MA overweight on the windshield.

    did I mention I hate stickers?
