Holy smokes...we are still going strong on our obsession with license plates/tags as we are well over 1,500 posts on this topic. Again, I'm starting this new thread to reduce load times since the previous "Vanity Plates..." thread has reached over 100 posts yet again.

Here is my thread starter from my typically straight-laced and up-tight Utah:

Code:
,==================================,
|                                  |
|               4HORS              |
|                                  |
'=================================='

I'm certain that it reads this way because they just couldn't fit "d'oevre" on the rest of the plate due to the 7-character maximum, right?

Outside a chiropodist surgery - that's podiatrist to the Merkins.

Ha!

I also saw one yesterday on a big black Ford Pickup:

DR11 ROT

There wasn't any advertising on the truck but I guess we know what he does for a living.

Did it have these wheels on it?

Germans clearly have their own view on what's hot or not.

I follow this guy a few times a week. I have yet to understand what they are trying to say or spell.

I don't want to take this thread "off into the weeds", but:

SamBones said:
Merkins?!?

One can Google for merkin and receive several explanations, but the one that had me truly ROFLSHISTC (Rolling On The Floor Laughing So Hard It Scared The Cat) was the explanation of the two meanings of Merkin. Read all the way to the end for the best laughs.

My suggestion is that if you don't want to be misunderstood, then use an apostrophe at the beginning, 'Merkins, when you mean Americans. <grin>

i saw this car a few years ago (2009) outside a hotel in London I stay at frequently.

it's an aston martin v12 vanquish coupé for those who care (and don't know)

unfortunately for the owner of this car the number plate is seemingly frequently cloned so the chap gets a fair number of bogus parking/traffic fines.
 
Saw on vehicle with a plate holder advertising a realtor.

Very modest owner I am sure. I don't think it was our dear Queen.

It might have been, I hear she drives herself on holiday (in a range rover).

I saw these in North Carolina (USA) over the weekend:
C#.NET on a pickup
IMAKE$4U on a new BMW. Makes me wonder who is making $ for whom.
