Vanity License Plates

[jawsr101]

I have a race red convertible
I put on my request
1 KA CHOW
2 RUST EZE
3 IAMSPEED
they rejected 1 and 2 but gave me #3
It will be very hard to ever talk my way out of a ticket now.

In Illinois I had RTRO RKT on a 2003 Mercury Marauder and carried over to a 2013 Mustang. They would allow the space without counting it as a letter or number.
In Arizona, that was taken, and I now have ITSMYRV, on the generic plate design, so I'm paying a vanity fee but not an affinity donation. Arizona has a ton of different affinity designs.

Unlike Illinois, which depends only on the state office spotting the questionable plates, Arizona asks you to write an explanation of the meaning when applying. Also, Arizona has only rear plates required, but vanity plates are supplied in pairs so you can put one on the front if you really want to.

Also if you go to carfax.com/value then click look up by license plate, and put in your state and zip it will tell you most likely if the tag is taken or not.

Wanted Stangry. Apparently someone else beat me to it.

Just to play devil's advocate, while your license plate can certainly be seen in public, posting it online in association with your account could allow online bad actors to identify your possessions with other personal information used in online accounts, and theoretically use that information to make various types of trouble.

Your full name, address and other home information is also publicly available, but most of us don't post it online on chat forums.

All that said, I do recognize that the absolute risk is small.

Here in New Hampshire, everyone wants some variation of "giddy up". I went in the opposite direction with "whoa now".

My Twister Special Tribute is MACH 1T. I should have gone with MACH XT since everyone thinks that it has an I instead of a 1. My 2025 is going to be 60ANNE. BTW, the T in 1T stands for Tribute/Turbo/Twister or just T.

Wow! 8 characters! I'm jealous. And they don't look squashed either.
