Cool. I still can't make up my mind what I want. But in the meantime I have the coolest regular plates I have ever had in my life. For the letter part, XFS is so much better than WVD I had on my Rodeo. How dare they put "V" next to "D" on a license plate. heheh

I just don't understand. You bust your butt to debadge and then you put what it is on the license plate. 'Splain to me.

Just kidding. Mine says BZBZZZ because the VX is yellow & my wife liked it. As the old saying goes: "Daddy's only happy when Mama's happy".

It was the "BAN IRS" plate on an Ironman VX that got me started down this path... If I ever find out who that was, they totally owe me a beer.

I went a little different:

Ok, my former VX (2001 Proton) had a plate "FLYT TYM," which I liked tremendously. The DMV tells me that that plate isn't available any more. Can't imagine anyone else has it, but I suspect that it hasn't made it through the serpentine bureaucracy to be released yet, or I may still own the rights to that plate and just not know it (plates turned in to the DMV long ago). I should inquire.

Barring that, for this one I can't decide. Right now she is carrying a standard plate, but I have thought through a few, whadya think:

VX-2: second VX I've owned
VXAQ-2 Former Marine Corps Squadron was VMAQ-2, and VX holds a special place in Navy/Marine Corps Aviation as a the experimental squadrons, VX is, however, a Navy designator.
VX VY (Best angle of climb/Best rate of climb) Some of those aviation things die hard.
VAMPYRE: Just amusing...

And in case you are thinking it I'll just come out with it, I AM getting too wrapped around the axle on this. But, what the hey, its fun!

Suggestions?

I have a whole long categorized list of choices I am sorting through. I will pay more for these plates than a t-shirt and hopefully they will last longer so I don't want to make a hasty decision.

Here are just a few ideas but some of them I have already decided just aren't me. We only get 6 letters in Texas. And many of my ideas may already be taken.

WUZN-ME
BEWARE
OBSTN8
BK-N-BLK
FANGED
XNTRIK (eccentric)
FRYTFUL (frightful)
DMNTD (demented) - my son says I am ;)
VORTEX

And then, if I give in to the desire to paint my hood and doors white in similar fashion to a patrol car with some sort of seal painted on the door, I am considering these plates.
VX-SQD.
VX_PTRL
OBEY
PUL-OVR


Also some ones that I felt silly for thinking up:
ME-BITE (since BITE-ME is taken everywhere and/or some form of it)
12BMUP (1 to beam up - I actually saw this one on that vanity plate website)
LACER8 (lacerate)

And one I can't get because of Texas limiting me to 6
TRSTNO1

Remember that's only some of the ideas, so talk about getting too wrapped around the axle... heheh

If I can't make up my mind I guess I will. But I kinda want something different from that. :)

I meant to put up the link to that gallery of vanity plates. So here is their page of their top 100 pics: http://www.coolpl8z.com/top-100-best-vanity-license-plate-ideas.php
I went to view the gallery of all plates once though and I was nearly two hours looking and still had not seen them all.
