It's not a vanity plate but a local plate for area , just supporting Vegas Springs . Most states have them , bout all I have for vanity ! Just something different sorta personal ?
I'm a firm believer of having a plate that is hard to remember quickly. So when you are hooning your car, and the spectators are pissed, they are trying to note down your license plate, a bunch of random letters and numbers is a lot harder to remember than one that is easy to read.
I put personalized plates some years ago on one of my cars. Although I enjoyed it, I would never do it again. Makes me feel like I'm too "into" myself.
So, I would say I dislike or "hate" them... No offense!
I have one and I like mine (obviously)...sometimes (rarely) I think it can funny to see one (my favorite so far as been "MPG FAIL" on a Ford Bronco), but I don't think a person is either dumb or cool for having one. If somebody's license plate can give me a chuckle while I'm stuck in traffic I'm ok with that.
At the end of the day it is just a license plate and not a big deal.
Unless I am evading the police, I love personalized plates.
(especially reading and trying figure out other people's plates)
My entire family had them at one point.
Our last name is spelled "Au".... so we took advantage of it.
Mine was Au-Summ (hence my member name)
My sister (a writer) had Au-thor
My Dad had Au-Mine
and my mom had Au-Fooy
If my last name was Smith, I would never had a personalized plate.
