You want to get an eraser wheel and take it off. It doesnt cost much and is very easy to do. You can find them an automotive paint stores and Napa and places of the like.

+1 on the eraser wheel, your paint probably won't look much different underneath as your truck isn't that old

++ on the eraser probably no fade if so it will go away with sun and waxing , possible might see where it was if the truck gets dusty and in certain sunlight but not to the eye looking at it .

yes a blow dryer will work also will take a lot longer , paint store would have one for like $10.00 the adapter is like $5.00 and then all you need is your at home drill or a air tool to spin it , well gppd luck anyway you decide to do it ! , let the truck sit in sun for the day and will be easier also !
