It may have been on the vehicle itself, or it may have been a bumper sticker, but in whichever case it was in writing that would be about right for the phone book:

**Trucks stay 300 feet behind**

I saw one today along the lines of “My wife is a font of sound advice. 99% sound, 1% advice.” Not that I particularly like it, but I thought I’d just throw it out there.

My best friend got this one for his '67 Cadillac Hearse. It narrowly won out over “Shit Happens” and “I’d Rather Be Fishing.”

“My other car is a piece of shit too”

“Make love, not war. See driver for details”

“I love animals. They taste great” (A bit crass, but funny)

I didn’t like the following one, but I thought the ending was funny:  
A car had “All men are idiots, and I married their king”. As I passed the car, I saw a man driving it. I thought that he _must_ be an idiot for driving a car on which his wife had added that bumper sticker.

Long ago, on a busy roadway in New Jersey, I inadvertently ran over a small animal (opossum). After my initial feeling of remorse for the newly compressed marsupial, I was overcome with embarrassment, realizing that the people behind me, reading my recently applied bumper sticker, were certainly drawing a logical conclusion about my nefarious driving agenda. The soon to be torn off bumper sticker read:  
Caution, I speed up to run over small animals  
:o

When I was about 19 or 20, I had two stickers on my car that I loved. One was the famous:

Don’t like my driving? Dial 1-800-EAT-SHIT  
and  
Moody bitch seeks kind, considerate  
guy for love/hate relationship

The scary part was how often I got approached and hit on because of the second sticker. “Hey, where do I apply??”

After all the Jesus Fish, followed by Darwin Fish, Fish eating other fish, Cthulhu fish, and the like, I have to admit that I really like the Christian Fish outline that has, written within it:  
**GHOTI**.

There are a lot of very witty bumper stickers available from Nancy Buttons, saying the same things as the buttons:
