You can try using a plastic putty knife. They are available at any of the home improvement stores, Lowes, HD, Ace. Using a plastic putty knife will reduse the chances of scratching your truck.

Re: Side moolding removal.

First make sure the panels are clean before atempting anything,nothing like grinding the dirt agaist your paint.Use a plastic putty knife and try some heat also,like a heat gun.Do not pry up against your body panel with the knife,you will leave little dents.Instead start at one and pull up the molding with one hand while you push the knife across the panel with the other hand.
