Default New Plates



Finally got my new plates. I submitted for several others, but they were all turned down, as they were deemed to be "offensive" I even received a set in the mail (FNCOOL1A) but when I took them down to the license bereau, they refused to sell me the sticker for them, as the plates had been "red flagged". I had to wait for a refund ($239.35!!) then I applied for several others, and this is what they finally accepted. Talk about censorship!!

I'd say that's $240 Canadian, so a good bit less USD.

Yeah, $240.00 CDN is probably only around 40 - 50 bucks down there....
Some people refer to our $$ as the new peso...
"course, seriously, the bank rate's around 1.17 to0day, so that would be about $205.00 U.S. Still too much,
