I've always thought vanity plates were pretentious. Akin to add on whale tales on Hondas. All show & no go.

X3, why give the government any more money, just more for them to waste.

Calif must have a dozen different plates for different causes.

to answer your question, Iguess winmutt.

What's up with all the downers with their negativity toward these plates? Who cares if you don't like them? Winmutt obviously does like them, otherwise his topic would be "Should I get personalized plates?" instead of "Time to get me personalized plates." I doubt your opinions will sway him.

As for me, I voted for GOT OEL, but I have a suggestion that's not on the list. How about something like OM617 or MY W123? A bit more personalized dontcha think?

Keep in mind tho, SKANKER, and SKANKIN are unfortunately close to SKANKY. People may get the wrong idea.
