I actually like the 4x4 stickers, but the STX and FX4 stickers don't look good IMO. The font and design of the '09+ 4x4 stickers match the design of the truck well.

Actually, stickers add a slight boost to HP and I have dyno charts to prove it. About 7 hp on the top end and 3-4 more ft./lbs of torque.

But my 1/4 miles times actually went down anyway.

Oh well, at least I know the extra performance is in there somewhere.

They also add Traction as the added weight is right over the rear axle (kinda) thus allowing for better ASSphault Grabbin'

I'm so full of it but they are still not coming off my truck lol it'll just be me and st1nn3tt in our own little club

I'm proud of my FX4. I don't care who thinks the stickers are ugly, I don't think that, and they are staying on!

Mine stayed at the dealer. I pulled them off before I left.

But with a load you might do a wheelie, lol. By the way I like your truck. I'm not a fan of the two-tone but yours actually looks good along with the tint.

Mine are staying on there as well. I actually like them If I didn't want them I wouldn't have gotten an FX4 let alone a 4x4. To each their own.

The 5-1/2" bed on SuperCab doesn't look as short with the 4x4 sticker removed.

Well, I'm a new guy around here... but I'm of the opposite opinion of the poster above.

I like the STX & FX4 decals, and even the older '04-'08 decals... but I just don't like the font of the plain ole 4x4 decals on my Lariat.

They're still on the truck for now, as I've only had it a week... but think they may be departing soon.

I removed mine about six months ago and bought new ones from Patriot Decals to go with the theme of my truck. I decided I liked the look of no stickers, so I never installed the new ones.
