Ya know, with those plates I think you're the only Californian I'd ever invite up here to live.
Unfortunately, you'd have to swap for OR plates and we only have 6 digits.

I'm kind of surprised that CA state government allowed you to do that... with as tight as they are about emissions!

Re: I finally got my new plates today

That's great - I would secure that on your pickup a little better, though, somebody might like it too much - and they can get you for not having a light for the plate as well- don't ask me how I know.

Re: I finally got my new plates today

When I ordered it online they ask you what the plate means and you have to give an explanation. I wrote in that it was going on a classic gm truck that gets very bad gas mileage.

when i picked them up yesterday the teller at the dmv laughed
