Default New plate today!!! LOOK

Well i need a new plate to go on the front of my new truck,since i got rid of my 4wd for a 2wd. I have always had a caterpillar plate on my truck since i am a operating engineer. I came up with a solution to my problem so i had this made. Lets here what you think.

I don't like front plates and if the state does not require one, I would not put one on. I prefer the clean look without a plate. No matter what the vehicle, even a truck.

That plate is nice but I would prefer to hang it in my garage than the front of the vette. I wouldn't put a front plate on unless I really had to.
