I like one of my friend's suggestions for my plate, alter the remaining numbers to read "MGNT"

a few years back, one of the local deputy registrars got a pile of license plate with the letters "THC" on them.. they get and issue them in numerical order- i wonder if the "THC 420" plates got stolen?

the plates that were issued for my 71 Nova were "CVY 079", which led to about 5 people a month asking me if my car was a 79.

back in '08, i applied for collector plates for my 74 Monte Carlo and 84 Regal T Type on the same day.. the plates that showed up for the Regal were 311 910 and the plates for the Monte were 311 911.. the Monte plates showed up about 2 weeks before the Regal plates, yet they were in numerical order.. one of my uncles thought that i got custom plates for my Monte to commemorate 9/11...

As much as the vanity plates I can't understand intrigue me, sometimes the ones I do understand fascinate me more. Saturday I saw what must have been a husband and wife duet.

Years ago, in Ontario I had a 2nd generation Datsun 510 and the lady handed me a plate "SSS 505" and she would not jump ahead and give me "SSS 510". I was begging her, but rules are rules.

I do sort of get want I want from the DMV. On our base tags there is 'forced political speech.' Unconstitutional for a start. And it's political speech I strongly disagree with. indecision

Which means I have to request neutral tags. no

All of the neutral tags start with the first two letters of my first name. Kinda cool to me at least. smiley

So minor win. yes

Old thread, but to me CHC is Chicago Cubs. That’s how it is often abbreviated for scores. 

 

Anyways, our van license plate happens to start with “AV”. We didn’t notice it until it had already got the name “Angie Van”. Lucky coincidence

The CHC thing is something that I bet one one will know or care about now in 2019.  2011 maybe 2019 I think that ship has sailed.   Unless your wife knows and cares about such things run with it.  I would run it but I also know that my days of being a chick magnet are long gone.  Hell I am not sure that they even ever existed in the first place.

just get a vanity plate that doesn't look like a vanity plate, maybe? 

My daily driver has vanity plates, but it's just six numbers that have relevance only to me, not any kind of message or anything.

The plate on my 4Runner is DMB-numbers

I figure if I do something stupid in traffic, the people will know why.

I don't think the one I was looking for is either of the two above.

I'll just mention it here. 

' LE MANS'

On a black on black current gen Corvette. Kinda cool. But now I want one that says LE MONS. smiley

None of my tags have the political speech. smiley

Likely in reference to our Senator Elizabeth Warren
