Default What does your vanity plate say?

Who has a vanity/custom license plate on their car?

Mine says DSNEY. It always gets attention, especially when we drove down to Disney World with it. We would come out to the parking lot and there would be people standing around waiting to see who it belonged to.

Hum...I'm to cheep to get one, but these are ones I've imagined.

MALMVR - Mal mover - course then I'd have to spring for the SUV

MALCR8 - Mal crate - SUV needed for that too....

I've thought about FIXE - which no one would get because it's Cape Verde slang for cool

Oh, FOGO - my favorite dog and portugues for Fire, course the car would have to be red, just like my dog.

I'm also too cheap to get one, but if I did it would either be TRAVSGRL because my DH's name is Travis or my last name followed by the year we started dating.

Vanity plates in Virginia are cheap as chips -- $10/year.

My vanity plate says SONANCE, which is the username my husband had on the online dating site where we met. It was a present I gave to him, actually. In the UK (where he's from) vanity plates cost hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars, and even then they don't look as good as the vanity plates you see here in the States. He thought it was amazing that I could get one for so little money, so I surprised him with it.

It means HARD EARNED!! It should have been on a Mercedes, but it was only on my old Honda Civic....

my mom has a vanity plate that is unreadable LOL

it says "KINILI" when she showed it to me I asked what the heck could that possibly mean?

She says that's her name in hawaiian LOL

She said she wanted her name on the plate but did not want people to recognize it as hers .WTH? I say she succeeded, succeeded at wasting money on a unreadable vanity plate LOL
