Dan,



I think I have PM'd you with my email address - but not being 15 anymore (by a long shot) I am only guessing that I did the right thing. More like, blind hope and luck. Let me know if you didn't get it.

I don't remember if I posted this or not - too lazy to search the thread - so I will post it and offer apologies if I did - found on the old interwebs...



Well I found a photo of a nissan cube with a plate that spelled out the formula for glucose - making it a sugar cube, but the thread won't let me post a photo..so whatever....

no reason you should not be able to post a pic, unless the pic is too big or the wrong format


"Vanity" license plates - Inkedupfatboy - 12-04-2013

I found no option to do so under more reply options. It doesn't matter now.

ah - that's because this thread is in the wrong section. this entire area is old threads. i still have to move all of them (all 1500 or so) to other spots. once that is done the appropriate permissions will be set

Before they had computers I saw the rolling plate "MERDE" (means s*** in French)

When I was in college, my landlord had "MERDE" for his plate, and had had it for many years. Herb Cane, who was a famous and beloved columnist in the S.F. Chronicle for 50 years, wrote about the plate in his column. A couple of weeks later my landlord recieved a letter from DMV informing him that he had to remove the plate.

Ca DMV's website FAQs indicate personalized plates orders average 10-12 weeks for completion .   I ordered a set of those for my new car about 12 weeks ago, and since I have received no " ready for pick up " notifications,  I decided to call DMV and inquire into the status .  They informed me the website is outdated,  and that orders now take a minimum of four months, and more than often to six months before plates are ready .   And if you want the retro /classic  black and gold ( I don't ) those can take up to as long as twelve months !!!    WTH, are those inmates who make them on strike ?   :glare:  Tongue

It's taking longer because of global warming. They also have to figure out all the new taxes to place on the transaction!


"Vanity" license plates - ds968 - 09-10-2017

Received the ready notice exactly four months from the date of the order . Now it'll be another four months waiting in line at the DMV to pick them up , :-) :-)

I heard that California has just started issuing digital license plates for those who want to spend ,reportedly, about $ 700 , but I did not listen to the news long enough to get more details than just this : just as with vanity plates you select your personalized letters / numbers sequence which is the regular display on your plate, but you are able to project other messages on that plate for five or ten seconds , ( I don't remember .) after which the display automatically reverts to your " regular " plate . I also dont know how this really works but I think you dictate the message into to your car's Bluetooth and then it's transmitted somehow to the plate ( probably need to install some electronic thingamajiggy which links the BT and communicates with the plate ) , but supposedly you can project whatever message you want (within a certain number of characters ) . Maybe : " back off " , " pay attention to me " " I'm single " " baby on board " " get off your phone " " stop putting on make up " , " I'm special " ( can't you tell just by this licensee plate ?! ) , and oh, so many other things . They suggest not displaying any insulting message when you're being followed by a police car, lol., albeit you only have a few seconds for conveying that .. Also not sure if you can have images projected on your plate ..maybe a finger salute ? ;-) :-)

Not to be cynical, but I can just see the number of road rage incidents increase with this thing ..
