Custom Licence Plates — Seen in the Wild

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
2641

Okay.

BIG HUG on a green Rivian R1T, Oregon plates

SSEV2NV on a Chevy Blaster SS. I’m not a fan of those ‘to envy’ plates. Unless you drive to Nevada a lot, but I’ve seen several ‘to envy’ plates. Yeah, not a fan.

MM I4 on a green I4

NOV 3RD on a green Cadillac Lyriq

And here are some of the plates I caught.

[Album] Plates
2643

TRONTZ Cybertruck

2644

An older Corvette with CA plates: Z6 4U2NV

2645

ZEBBERS on a camper trailer with Nevada plates. I didn’t realize you could get personalized plates for a trailer, but apparently in Nevada you can.

2646

And two more while out running errands:

INOVA8 on a Chevy Tahoe. Probably self explanatory. I imagine the owner being a Silicon Valley type.

14THGEN on an Audi TT. I really doubt there have been 14 generations of the Audi TT. The owner is the 14th generation of something? That’s an awful long lineage. Unless I misread it and it’s “I 4th Gen”, as in “I’m the 4th generation of something”.

2647

Scored just one today; I wasn’t out much & it was raining so lots of other people weren’t out much either:

EZSTR on a FL 5-character Miami Heat NBA booster plate on a newish Hyundai Elantra in the sporty trim. Might be “Easy Street”, but at least around here, the folks on Easy Street drive something more pretentious than a Hyundai, even a nice shiny one. Any other ideas?

2648

Yeah… NO.

There had not been 14 generations of the TT. S/he is referring to something else, 14 generations of something else, not the TT. There have only been 3 TT generations.

2649

EXCUSME on a Rav4 or similar.

007EH I’m picturing a Canadian villain greeting James Bond. It was on a BMW SUV. No badges I could see indicating the model, but it did have a badge that read “competition” and it had quad exhausts and really wide tires, so this was no ordinary family crossover. Did Bond drive such a vehicle in one of the recent movies? I haven’t followed the franchise during the Daniel Craig era.

OROOTST There was a frame that read “Organic Roots Tea” so obviously that’s the meaning. Presumably that’s the owner’s business.

S QU ME on a Civic. That Rav4 driver I saw earlier got the obvious spelling, so our Civic driver had to settle for this.

2650

Scored 3 good ones today:

  • CRUZN⎵FL on a NY standard plate on a “conversion van” that looked like it had been turned into a mini camper. The standard NY plate has a small silhouette of NY state between the two sets of characters. Which from a distance looks a bit like a bold hyphen. But in this case it means the plate read “CRUSN NY FL” which I thought was double-clever if on purpose. I bet he’ll be crusn northbound here soon; they all do.

  • 383RT on a FL plate on a bright green early 1970s 383Magnum Dodge Challenger R/T convertible. It wasn’t immaculate, but it was darn spiffy. Just like this example, but convertible. With the top down.


    The pièce de résistance was that they got the FL special plate that commemorates the space shuttle disasters. Which looks like this:

    and has "Challenger"across the bottom. Verry thorough.

  • OH⎵CLE⎵IO on a Ohio standard plate on a generic car. Good bet they hail from Cleveland. Again clever.
2651

Correction to the above: it wasn’t BADDASH, it was JACKASH.

2652

Saw MZRTI… on a Mazerati. Go figure.

2653

At least his plate frame didn’t say “My other car is a Lamborghini”. So not a total douche :zany_face:

Saw SKAN⎵MAN on a big BMW. Probably he works in medical imaging, retail POS UPC scanners, or something like that.

2654

What plate would you expect on a vehicle for a company that designs and flies aerial banners?

At the airshow I was at yesterday, I saw AIM HI and thought that was rather nice.

2655

“Aim High” was a USAF recruiting slogan for many years. Maybe the 2000s-ish?

Might be a connection there too.

2656

PAY4WRD Easy to decipher for a change.

2657

Thanks for the explanations! The TT Bun car might have been an Audi TT, mentioned below.

And in the same parking lot today I saw MOMDAD25, maybe their kid/s got the plate for them as a gift last year? Or a couple became parents just last year?

I also saw a name, REZA1

2658

Scored 3 today, none great:

  • ADE⎵LLA on a FL standard plate on a VW New Beetle. Probably the first name of the lady driving.

  • DR⎵MRM on a FL standard plate on a generic SUV. Hi Doc!

  • FELLERUP on a NY standard plate on an IC Volvo wagon. Maybe a joke where their other car is an EV with some sort of “No gas for me, haha” plate, so this one is “Why yes, I do take gasoline”. Otherwise I have no ideas.

2659

On a Hyundai Santa Fe seen maybe half a mile from the Honda Center where the Ducks play: HATRYK The license plate frame? Los Angeles Kings

Wicked burn, Duude!
