Default My new vanity plate

Hey Forum Members,

I just put my new plate on the car. Its meaning is a bit of a double entendre.

First of all, I got my car the hard way (i.e. work) hence, HARDWAYZ

The second meaning refers to my love of getting hammered at the craps table. I am quite fond of playing the hard 6 and 8's.

Wow! I was just at our courthouse in Sumner County Kansas yesterday tagging my 02 EB Z06. I was going to get a personalized tag until I saw what Kansas has changed our vanity plates to. Your pic makes the tag look a lil better than they look in person. The tags are almost hugger orange or brighter. I cant bear to put one on my EB car. I was so disappointed because I had a personalized tag on the C4 I just sold. I went with a regular Ks tag which happens to be a lighter blue and would not look like so out of place. Damn Kansas, what a tacky tag, you just missed out on my $45 bucks. Ah well maybe in 5 yrs they will look better and I will do one then Am I nuts or do these tags look bad to you guys as well??

To be honest, I did a double take as well when I ordered it back in November. I had the earlier Bison version tag personalized on my pickup and it looked pretty good.

If you look close at the new plate, you will see giant wind turbines. I absolutely despise the subtleties of what the Green movement is espousing and now one of Obama's minions is talking about declaring war on vehicles. Screw em......... as long as I can find 91 octane fuel for my little hellion, I am a happy fellar.

Happy motoring out there guys/gals. Spring feels like it is ALMOST here!!!

Oh yea, Go Cats!
