Don't put them on mine. Only one I'd do if I did would be a 26.2 sticker. I see them on other cars, only way it'd be useful is when going to a race and you can tell they're running it and maybe follow them to figure out where parking is. But I usually know where the parking is.
Bumper stickers/window stickers. Yes or No?

I have this one on my XTerra
My Scion has 2 on it, one is under the xB on the lift gate, it says "Toaster Edition", and it has a big bandaid sticker on the side bumper where my wife backed into my truck.
My truck has a honor roll sticker on my metal bumper from my daughter when she was in the 7th grade 4 years ago, never took it off, and a truck forum sticker in the bed of the truck. I did have a black dot matrix windows shade on the back for about 4 years, but it started fading and peeling.
My Santa Fe has none, and am actually wanting to debadge it completely.

I don't want them on my vehicles. However, I do like to look at them on other people's ride.That turbo Buick sticker looks cool. I would put something simple and sporty like that on my truck. I also like to see national park stickers on the back of campers even though I get distracted trying to see how many parks the owner has been to.

Very good point.
These days, there's also the chance that some full grown spoiled toddler will take offense at one of your stickers and vandalize your car.

Probably not just speeding tickets, but general unwanted attention from others. You never know what might set someone off. Not just political stuff, but sports teams, etc. One of my friends used to have a heavily bumper stickered car and there were a couple instances where people tried to remove or deface the stickers. None of his were particularly inflammatory or anything, but the political ones definitely got unwanted attention. He also did get pulled over more than the rest of our circle of friends though he was one of the more sane/careful drivers.
When I was in high school/early college I had a couple stickers on my truck's back window, a Lynyrd Skynyrd one and one for my school, but that was it. Even 15 years ago there was no way I was putting anything political on it. Since then, nothing. My Rangers don't even have a dealership decal, and the Explorer just has the remains of its Wickstrom Ford decal.

I have one of these on the Trans Am and Caprice. It is the symbol of the RAGNAR relay race.

I have a few from the places I have visited. I don't put political ones on my car. Some people don't believe in freedom of speech and will damage your car over them.
I only show the clubs I am involved with. NRA, GOA,ARRL,NAR, etc.

This is a cool car. Especially considering its not my style.

This seems appropriate for the car and considering the cost to own one.

That's a nice looking car. I love the "Cars" sun reflector. Awesome, goes well together!

I have a ton of racing, tools, motorcycle, and automotive related stickers. None of them are on any of my vehicles.

I don't understand why some people put them on the paint??
No, they look ugly.

Not really.
My Jeep has the BF from a BFGoodrich sticker on it. It was my grandpa's Jeep and it's his initials, he thought it was hilarious we only put the first part of the sticker on it.
And back when I had my VW Beetle TDI I had two that I thought were funny. One was "One Less Prius" and the other was an arrow pointing to the exhaust "I Support Global Warming" which was funny because it was a diesel and blew a ton of black smoke. The license plate wasn't mine, my aunt gave me the car and the license plate stayed.
