Re: Weird license plates you've seen
I had a Dodge Grand Caravan with the license plate of JSS 727. I got stick on letters and made it say...
JeSuS heb.7:27. "who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people's, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself."

Re: Weird license plates you've seen
I thought it said Set Perv! Still didn't make any sense to me. The funniest one was one I read in Reader's Digest where this middle age heavy set man bought a new car and put on a vanity plate to say: 18 Again. It read 18AGN. His teenage son tells his dad, "Cool license plate...I ate again"
My two cars have license plates that read:
Car 1: WH__LS with two underscores between the H and the L. When people ask me what that means I tell them to buy a vowel: WHeeLS and this plate is on my AstroVan, initially on my Scirrocco back in 1988.
Car 2: WH_LS2 that is currently on my BMW.
My friend had a license plate on his Turbocharged/Nitrious powered VW Rabbit: I8AZ28
Another good one was on a Toyota SR5 back in the Toy Boy vs VW Bug boys days of the 80's and 90's: RAID as in bug killer.

Re: Weird license plates you've seen
A long time ago (either in 1990 or 1991) while visiting the Bay Area I was crossing the Bay Bridge (the one that runs from Oakland to San Francisco) and the car in front of me had a plate that said SETPRV, which happen to be one of the privileges available to a username under the VMS operating system. While I took a picture of that car I didn't manage to get the license plate in the photo.

Weird license plates you've seen
This morning, I just saw a Scion xB with the license plate "bntobx" (bento box)
I thought that was the perfect name for it, as that car is a box on wheels.
What other weird license plates you've seen on a car?

I see AV8R around once in a while; I wonder what sort of plane he/she flies.

Re: Vanity Plates
Originally posted by pzarquonHow did you get two blanks on your plate? I thought they were unusually stingy with spaces and dashes and how they can be used. That's cool. I had a special plate when I had a collector's car... a 1979 Hurst/Olds W-30 with the plate "79 W30" (though I doubt many people knew what it meant).
Today's sighting: An emphatically expensive black Mercedes with the plate "NYSE." Guess he survived the dot-com bomb!
When I applied for it (back in 1984) there were six blanks to fill, so I filled the first and last two. They accepted it then.
In Reader's Digest there was a quip about a middle aged man who was tired with his image so his vanity plate was to mean "18 Again" and it came out I8AGN. His son came home and told his dad, "Cool license plate...I ate again"
When I bought my BMW I wanted LOVNIT but it was already taken! So was 6BOYS, so I opted for a continuation of my Wheels plate WH LS2
The best I saw was on a Toyota when during the 80's it was a war between the VW Bugs and the Toyota SR5's. The Toyota's plate was "RAID" and underneath it said, "Bug Killer".
On a Porche tooling towards Kahala on the freeway was IXLR8. My friend's Turbo/Nitrous VW Rabbit was I8AZ28.

Hawaii's six-character limit is somewhat confining (many other states give you seven to play with). But the especially creative can still come up with some fun things. I saw a hybrid Prius today with the plate, "CLN AIR."Tags: None
