Do you have a vanity plate?

[ctfjr]

I'm not sure why but for as long as I can remember I've always liked to get vanity plates for my vehicles. I saved a few but most are long gone
What do yours look like?



and my current ones

I have license plates on two vehicles and five trailers that are all variants of MCMXI. I might have to deviate from that when I finally title and register the LMTV. I was thinking MT LMTV or M1078, but might simply keep going with MCMXI 8 or something. We're only allowed seven letters up here, and less depending on the plate background.

I used to have an Audi Allroad in Hawaii, well two, one for me and one for the wife. The license plate on mine was PIR8 but very few got it.

I guess mine might be considered a vanity plate.
A (FL) Vietnam service medal plate?

Never had one and never wanted one.

I once saw in a parking lot a small red BMW convertible which said “HOT4MEN”

I wanted to hang around to see what she looked like.

My buddy pointed out “This is California! What makes you think it’s a woman?”

I have had two vanity plates.
The BLK-66 was on my black over black 1966 Satellite convertible and my
1969 Dodge Superbee clone had CLONE-B . The reason I went with CLONE-B on my Dodge was because "Yes, its a clone because I am too poor to own the real deal". ! lol. I had moved to Wi in 2002 from Missouri hence the non vanity plates when I took the picture of the Dodge.

30 years ago I got one for my wife. It is her given (first) name. Spelled perfectly. Six letters.

Not sure if that is a vanity plate though. I just got it because it was available and thought it would be fun for her having her name on the plate. Having a Japanese name probably helped too.

Now that I think of it, perhaps I should see if HENRO is available for my old van...LOL...no interest though...Hummmm, I don't think I have any interest...but now that you brought it up...LOL

My motorcycle plate is T0666,it's been on all 3 of my rides. I point that out to all the JWs that show up.

 

[McMXi]

Here are two of my plates. An elderly woman asked me what MCMXI meant the other day while I was at the post office. Being in Montana most don't have a problem with the explanation, and if they would have, they most likely wouldn't know what a 1911 was anyway.

It's the name of our companies and both of our Initials.
You own your plates, they don't go with the vehicle, so they will stay with us as we change Autos, trucks, and trailers.
Our plates are super cheap, If I told you what we pay for plates even personalized plates you all would cry!

$25 here for a standard plate. Not sure on the vanity plates. It's the personal property tax on all registered vehicles that gets you.

My daily drivers plate is VE9AA (which is not really a vanity plate per se, but an specially authorized Amateur Radio license callsign letter plate)..ie: I pay a mere $12.00 to transfer a real license plate # to this plate,(+ I had to make a special application with proof of license whereas a vanity plate, is something like $200 +/- nowadays and no proof of anything needed.

My plate on my Classic Mini says "MINIAC" (ie: Maniac)

The plate on the 61 Land Rover (in my avatar) said "MAD4MUD" (reads as "MAD for Mud"), but my intention was "MADE for MUD" ...NB only allows 7 letters. The ol' Beast is now gone but I kept the plate.

My first vanity plate was my first name with the company initials HMH…on a brand new Chevy Tahoe (1999) they gave me to drive. One of my buddies sees it and says…awe, that is so cute…the company bought you a plate…as he laughs. I say to him…well yeah…but they gave me the truck for free! He quit laughing at that point. I eventually owned that company and have had many nice trucks. I sold that company, kept a 2020 Tahoe and still have the truck and plate…23 years later.
