Currently have a Ram 1500 for work, and use magnets with company logo instead of vinyl stickers, so I can remove magnets/logo when driving during weekends, etc. About to be put into a new F-150, which obviously won't allow magnets on the aluminum body. Trying to avoid vinyl stickers if possible - has anyone found an alternative solution? Thanks in advance!

Pull door panels and superglue magnets in the inside of the doors so the stickers attract to them.

We did this with some LSU logos on a buddy's truck.

You are getting a Ford.

Company logos will be the least of your problems.

Had the same problem.

I tried the static-cling stickers, but they didnt really work either.

I’m on my 4th F-150 and you couldn’t pay me to drive another brand. The interiors on GM products are freaking garbage and they are so far behind with technology.

I have a current generation F-150 and it’s one of the best trucks I’ve ever owned. I’ve had zero issues and put 186k on my last truck. Dodge is shitty. You know you’re bad when you’re bragging about Initial quality.

Suction cups on the windows, make sure your sign letters are 3” tall.

When I had this situation I just asked the CEO why I needed company logos on my vehicle. I told myself I could do without

Problem solved

There are vinyl stickers that are easily removed and reapplied. In many cases they are called removable wall graphic vinyl. You want it to be at least 6mil thick and laminated, thicker is better here as it makes it easier to handle. They won’t last forever but you should get a year out of them.

We had the same issue with our fleet when the F150's came out. WE have some kind of decal with a shite ton of suction cups that they bought that work alright assuming you didn't drive over 25 mph which is fine to get you onto job sites, but probably won't work for what you are needing.

Aluminum body work....

Anyone hear about body shops needing special vented rooms for body work on aluminum...?

Was told it also cost a shite ton to work on them if needed... True?

If they are paying for the truck, you should be thanking them for the opportunity to advertise their company each and every moment that you drive THEIR vehicle.
