vanity plates - your thoughts?

[Roadstergal]

My thoughts on personalized plate are as follows: I'd rather spend the money on a new set of gloves.

Yeah, but will gloves protect your fender in the event of an accident?

I've got vanity plates for my car - and i'll probably get one for my next bike.

[RVertigo]

The only vanity plates I like are the ones that are really short...

I've seen a car that has the plate:  1

Now THAT would rule...
"What's your plate number?"
"1"
"...   ...   OK... What's the rest?"
"That's it... My plate number is 1"

:mrgreen:

Something like that... "A" or "0" would be sweet!  Or even "GS."

I like plates that are puns.  My Miata was YEEHATA.

My cousin has a purple Harley and his wife a yellow Harley.

His says "Bacon" (he is a motorcycle cop) and hers says "Eggs".

Jesus, do they wear matching vests?

Saw a black lamborghini in Newport Beach, plate: RACE YA

Wanted to put FYRBOLT on my Chrysler Crossfire.  Never did, for fear of diplaying my nerd-osity to the world.

Have always wanted the California Yosemite plates with OF QRTZ on it for my Jeep.

Wanted BLKPERL for my husband's black jeep with the pirate sticker on the back window.  It's taken.  :x

No.  
But recently, a giant Milwakee's Best Light can landed on him.

Lucky! Did he open it and drink the delicious contents?

I haven't seen the commercial in question, by the way, but I assume it has to do with a couple wearing matching outfits? I have seen others in the series.

Heard from a guy:

His truck: AGIT8OR
Her truck: AGIT8ED

I thought that was hilarious.

I wasn't afraid... that's why mine reads:

That just makes all the hardcore geeks chuckle at you.  

The plate on Don Box's Porche was "IUNKNWN", I have a friend with "XYZZY" (If you get that one, you're an old school geek).

[NiceGuysFinishLast]

if you want a geek plate, how bout 1337, 0wn3d, Pwn3d, H4x0r, H4x0rz, or some derivative in leet? Just a thought.. but then, everyone will know I'm a geek when I get a GT license plate... so no need to put the effort in for me...

Sorry I have to correct you again.... who does such a horrible job on the internet?? Tell me the site so I can kick theri ass!  :guns:

I studied latin for almost 7 years. NECI has no meaning, I swear, I just checked up in my dictionary.
