Spotted: Custom plates

[ThePenIsMightier]

Apparently it's time to start a thread about spotting custom license plates.

Just spotted a custom OILERS plate with an Edmonton surround on a car in Prince Edward Island! LoL!

Guy went from a Patriot to a Cherokee, he's really moving sideways in the world.

He's definitely brand loyal.

Though the plate would look better on rage2 's Miata.

I don’t think they’ll allow a plate that looks similar to another.

Correct. All letters are available, but, they have rules where you can't substitute a number for what would be a letter on a custom plate. For example, "B3YOND" would be rejected, as would be "1NL1NE".

At least that was how it was explained to me when I was looking into it. Perhaps dannie could shed some more light as our resident expert.

I got "HAGGI5" and "HAGG15" rejected as "HAGGIS" was already issued

Yeah, their rules are frustrating. There was a guy with a plate like B8BB88B or something that I always thought "great job, guys! No one will ever be able to accurately name that plate to police of there was an incident because the B's look like 8's and vice versa". Similar to YVVYVY or something.
Oh well...

[Disoblige]

You cannot get the letter O.
It is a zero.

[killramos]

It’s also pretty frustrating because you will get tickets because the meter maid never puts the 0 in correctly and it comes up as you not paying.

I got in regular fights with UofC parking over it.

Something to deal with now that I am using my Vanity plate again.

You are correct my friend. They cannot be in alignment with government issued plates (ie: abc 123), cannot be on our do not issue list and cannot be a version of one that is already issued publicly.

[haggis88]

If I wanted to get a plate that would align with a government issue WAAAAAYYYY into the future (think along the lines of ZZZ-9999) would that still be a no-go?

We're already there for ZZZ-1111 lolololol. Sooooooo nope. That being said, GOA has their anticipated use plates planned out for years ahead.

Nah, ever since Support the Troops plates, and getting reported on my driving with my RAGE2 custom plate, I'm more than happy with a color coordinated plate to my car's colours where ppl can't remember the plate number enough to call and report it in and me having to deal with a call from the cops.

Still have a huge stack of custom plates I bought over the years that I'll never use.

Reported?

Karens calling him in for driving like a dickbag.

Also RE: beyond plate, as previously mentioned, I can't imagine the type of person that buys a Jeep patriot and is like "fuckin love this thing, I'm gonna replace it with a newer version of the same one."

I have been waiting for just this scenario to happen since I have my custom plate. Surprisingly, it hasn't happened yet. Nor has it shown up in this thread... :rofl:

[rage2]

Typically what gets reported is say I see a nice off ramp, and nobody around except behind me, I’ll take it 8/10ths, maybe a little sideways. Then slow back down on the new road back to speed limit. They don’t like me doing that.

A Jeep Patriot is a 7% more desirable vehicle than a 3-wheeled skateboard.
It's a fact.

Tell me more about this skateboard. I am considering it over the patriot.

There is simply no tangible quantity of +Rep that could suitably address this genius.

I looked at my List of Cool Things....i didn't see vanity plates on there. huh.

Judging by the stick family, the $220 on a vanity plate would probably have been better spent on condoms

I tried very very hard to get BFG-9000 when they started into the new issue plates a couple years ago - I called around to almost every registry trying to find it when I saw the B series starting to get issued, but no luck.

I still have SCORCH kicking around in my filing cabinet somewhere waiting for a car as equally amazing as my old Cavalier running stock internals :rofl:

I actually had to look…a 2.8L V6 putting out a sweet 130 hp…it may take a while to hit 88 mph.

I went to high school with a girl that had a purple one with oem purple wheels. It was pretty awesome.

I believe I've maybe met that guy. He's essentially low key but he trades in his Lambo's pretty much annually. I remember him saying "it's really not that much money, overall" and it got me thinking it might not be that completely berserk. I got the impression he (the guy I met) was a dentist and not a physician.

But entirely possible that it's a different guy and my story is pointless.

That’s not what it means.

It’s Drop Out 2. The first DRPOWT plate is on a purple McLaren

[ThePenIsMightier]

[Twin_Cam_Turbo]

My dentist drove a purple Huracan last time I saw him.
