NOW WAY. DO NOT PUT A RAZOR BLADE TO YOUR TRUCK THAT IS STUPID

I have done two truck now and I would suggest using a goo gone or the 3M
version. Take your time and pull the vinyl off of the paint. There will
probably be a white film left on the paint put the goo gone on the truck rub
it off till it looks beautiful.

Sorry but I would also wait till it warms up!

well what worked best for me is using a razor blade
(like the one in a utility knife the big one), the
blade NEVER touches your paint and removes the decal
very fast, just use bug&tar remover spray to get rid
of any leftover glue, go slowly when using this method

others recommend a hairdryer and your fingernail which
is incredibly time consuming and not very effective
(if you dont have the heat at the right temp and
distance from the surface it just makes it harder to
get off as the decal melts too much, i tried that
method and gave up after an hour and only getting a
couple letters off
