CR89 on a Kia Telluride. I’m guessing that’s state highway 89, which runs along the western shore of Lake Tahoe.
ALISKA on an Acura crossover. I’m guessing that’s a name. Or maybe someone named Ali likes ska music.
QCCD INC on an F150. There were also QCCD company logos on the doors. I initially assumed a contractor, but the truck had a crew cab and short bed, while most contractor’s trucks have a single cab and long bed. Nonetheless, the truck obviously belongs to a business of some sort.
N PHASE on a Porsche 911. “In phase”, I presume. I feel like I may have posted that one before.
Around here CR in combination with a road number would mean “county road”, and I’d suspect that somebody lives on County Road 89. I don’t know if they do it that way out there, though.
We don’t really have numbered county roads around here, though (Well, Madera County does, but it doesn’t look like the numbers go up that high).
Yeah, I thought of that, too. Although “Alaska” is only 6 letters, so they have an additional character to play with. ALASKA1, ALASKA2… I suppose it’s not impossible that all of those were taken, too.
Honda Accord with CA plates: V1N58LA No other markings on the car, but I’m pretty sure they’re serious Dodgers fans. Vin Scully (arguably the greatest sports broadcaster ever) came to Los Angeles with the Dodgers in 1958.
LONEMS3 on a Mazdaspeed3 (The high performance version of the Mazda3). Lone might be a bit of an exaggeration, but it’s true you don’t see many of the Mazdaspeed versions on the road.
BLUJBRD on a black crossover. “Blue jay bird”, I assume. I don’t know if they’re a Toronto Blue Jays fan, or just avid birders.
CRYSTILD on a Tesla. I assume the driver’s name is Crystal D.
BABYEMZ on a new Bronco. “Baby 'em” I guess. I’m not sure if the Z means anything other than making the plate unique. Or does “EMZ” stand for anything?
NTFD⎵AWY on a FL standard plate on a Lincoln geezer crossover. Which mean nothing to me until I noticed the Grateful Dead emblem on the back panel and the Grateful Dead license plate frame. “Not Fade Away” being one of their signature tunes.
PKBLBRNY on a NY standard plate on a generic sedan. Took me a bit, but I’m going with “Pickleball Bernie” or maybe “Pickleball Brooklyn New York”.
ITFLY on a FL 5-character Miami Heat NBA booster plate on a Tesla Model S. Yeah, those things fly pretty good. I think I reported this one already awhile ago.
TRBO⎵⎵14 on a FL standard plate on some flavor of late model Porsche 911-derivitive convertible with the factory “turbo” label across the rear hood lid. Aside: now that damned near everything comes with a turbo or two, that term has not nearly the marketing cachet it did in the 1970s.
