10 of Our Favorite Iconic And/Or Funny Bumper Stickers

Bumper stickers are alive and well and bigger than ever. But there’s something cool about vintage bumper stickers (from before the turn of the century in particular) that still resonates today. Whether they’re trumpeting a cause, poking fun at the world with humor or irony, or just spreading good vibes, these classic designs still resonate today and inspire new designs.

Here are 10 of our favorite vintage mostly funny bumper stickers, each with its own unique slice of history, humor, and wit.

1. Snoopy for President

Who wouldn’t want Snoopy in the Oval Office? This classic sticker reflects a sentiment that still holds—we'd like to see our favorite cartoon character (or whoever or whatever, for that matter) run the country. Nevertheless, with his cool, laid-back attitude and loyal nature, Snoopy would definitely win over plenty of voters. This Peanuts sticker is fun and iconic, but is certainly not unique in its message. It represents a common bumper sticker theme of (fill in the blank) for President, or (so and so) for Dog-Catcher (no offense Snoopy).


2. My Other Car Is a Spaceship

Timeless. Iconic. My other car is a (fill in the blank). We have seen so many varieties of this message—Porshe, horse, broomstick, etc. In this particular case, it is a spaceship piloted by everyone's favorite wisecracking alien, ALF. This style bumper sticker is a good way to poke fun at your rusty old car or tell people what you wish you were driving..

3. This Car Climbed Mount Washington

Not necessarily funny, but certainly iconic, and has spawned many clever satires. (Check out our own This Car Climbed the Big Rock Candy Mountain.) A classic for anyone who’s climbed the winding road up New Hampshire’s Mount Washington.The bumper stickers and given out by the thousands each year to drivers who pay admission to the Mount Washington Auto Road. And if you like this Mt. Washington bumper sticker, be sure to check out our Travel Bumper Stickers Collection for a similar flavor of designs.

4. Visualize Whirled Peas

A clever play on the Visualize World Peace Bumper Sticker, this version puts a humorous twist on a positive message. It’s light-hearted and fun, for people who don't take themselves or their causes too seriously. And hey, while you're here, don't forget to support one of our favorite causes by snagging one of our Legalize Poop Bumper Stickers.

5. Have a Nice Day

Good vibes rule the day with The Have a Nice Day Bumper Sticker, often featuring a bright yellow smiley face, which became a symbol of positivity in the 1970s. Again, not funny, but iconic and well-meaning, it’s a friendly reminder to spread a little happiness wherever you go. Be part of the solution and not part of the problem. Be sure to check out our Collection of Hippie Bumper Stickers for more similarly flavored designs.

6. Mean People Suck

At Crunchmouth, we are not into spreading bad vibes. And, as much as it pains us to say it, it's true—mean people kind of suck. It’s blunt, bold, and still resonates with anyone who’s ever dealt with people that are, well....kind of nasty. (Chances are you have if you are a human). This sticker may be simple, but it speaks volumes, making it a favorite of those who choose kindness. 

7. Keep on Truckin'

Keep on Truckin'—What does it mean? I don't even have a truck. With its roots in the 1960s counterculture movement, the Keep on Truckin’ Bumper Sticker bumper sticker reflects a free-spirited attitude toward life. Based on the famous artwork by R. Crumb, this sticker became a symbol of perseverance, encouraging everyone to keep moving forward, and do it with a smile, no matter what.

8. I’d Rather Be Fishin’

This bumper sticker is a classic for anyone who would much rather be out on the water with a fishing rod in hand. You see this sentiment expressed in a variety of different messages, but it's all the same theme—“I’m here, but I wish I wasn’t". Fill in the blank with whatever thing you'd rather be doing—this sticker taps into that universal desire to escape.

9. Mom’s Taxi

Every parent knows the feeling—shuttling kids to school, practice, and everywhere in between. The “Mom’s Taxi” sticker is a humorous acknowledgment of the countless hours spent behind the wheel, chauffeuring the little ones around. It’s a badge of honor for multitasking moms everywhere, reminding the world that parenting often feels like a full-time driving job.

10. What If the Hokey Pokey Really Is What It’s All About?

Didn't Jimmy Buffet have a song about this? This bumper sticker is a playful reminder to not take life too seriously. By questioning the age-old childhood song, it turns a simple, silly dance into an absurb philosophical quandry. It’s a fun way to embrace the craziness of life and to suggest that maybe, just maybe, the hokey pokey is all we need to find happiness.

Timeless Humor is the Best Kind

These vintage bumper stickers have stood the test of time because they offer more than just a laugh—they bring back memories, spark conversations, and remind us of the humor that makes life enjoyable. From Snoopy’s presidential campaign to the hokey pokey’s existential question, each sticker carries its own little slice of history, proving that great humor never goes out of style.
