Believe me, it was none too easy to send that pair of plates (OEL MTR) back to Paul.

When I was at the Tag Office, the clerk informed me a couple of my choices would probably be rejected because they looked too much like a regular tag series. I would imagine some of the choices here would fit that bill depending on how your state handles that.

Speaking of clerks at the Tag Office, I understand in California they've got a team which studies requests before granting them.... to avoid any hidden obscenities, rude remarks, etc.

For example, "EMTAE" looks harmless enough untill you see it your rearview mirror.
