Hair dryer, around a minute, peeled right off. Went over with goo gone, washed off with car wash soap and water, cleaned that off, applied some wax. Looks good. Can't tell where the stickers were in the sunlight.

Just used heat gun and goo gone. Worked like a charm and then used some detail spray to remove the goo gone then wax. Very easy and looks a hell of a lot better

leave Jeep in the sun for a while and use a straight blade VERY CAREFULLY to get it off and then we used fantastic to get off the goo.

"VERY CAREFULLY" these are the key words if you're going this route

Use Goo Gone. They sell it as an adhesive and grafetti remover. Works great on getting Sharpie off leather seats, gum out of the kid's hair, paint and all kinds of stuff. You can get it about any big box store.

Default Goof off

comes right off and does not damage the paint. No heat required.

Agree do not use thinners, WD-40 will do the trick and not hurt the paint (also works well on refrigerator door for taped picture removal) and always clean the surface with something like Simple Green before you add a sticker.
