Vanity Plates
 
My wife is looking for new plates for the tow truck. She has BOT PLR 4 now but everybody asks "Whats a Bot?.

Anybody got a good idea for a 29 Fever?

Illinois allows 7 letters or 6 and a number.

I have "BOTNFVR" on my pickup. I would check your states fees on vanity plates though. In the Socialist Republic of Maryland they charge you extra every year you renew.

Sunsation 32 11-17-2002 07:39 PM

Mine is N2BOATS

Keep em coming!

I made need a second choice.

US1 Fountain 11-17-2002 09:03 PM

My opinion........ while the beak and 3 ft short jokes are funny, more than likely 98% of the drivers on the road will not understand it. And then over 50% of boaters will not get it. Not all boaters know what Fountains, AT's, OL's and BT's are. They just know of all these being a 'Cigarette' style boat, and this is probably only because of Miami Vice.

I think the more generic ideas like 'IGOFAST' or 'XXBOATXX' will be more understandable. Nothing worse than reading a vanity plate and not having any idea what it is saying. Why spend the extra $40 if only a few can get the drift?
Kinda like my plates. Simple, yet understandable.
'98, sheesh, I really ought to drive this thing! :rolleyes:
