Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. Stupid is as stupid does.
Perhaps I'll give this some more thought.

I think it's a good one. I know that it was a takeoff on how we learned to read..."See Spot...see Spot run".

Now, I think recalling you said you can use 8 spaces, so maybe

RUNC6RUN

That is certainly in step with Forest.

I was actually thinking, if I did go with that plate, that I might have a custom plate frame made with 'Run C6 Run' on the top and "Run Run Run' across the bottom.

Check out the Pennsylvania DOT site and see what you think. They have a vanity plate visualizer which will display what you type in if the plate is available. It sure looks to me like it's doable.

If I'm going to get a vanity plate I just want it to be something that's unique and a little clever, and maybe a little bit humorous too.

Everyone has an opinion and no one is right or wrong. My opinion is to stay from the old cliche.

SC is so backwards on this (except for the low cost), you have to fill out a paper form and mail it in with your top 3 choices. No way to see if it's available. If you can't get any of the 3 I think they just keep your money.

Oh, man, that is great! And, it is totally unfair, that my state (NV) will only allow 7 characters + spaces, total. It leaves out so many good plates. When I get my vet (hopefully within two weeks), it will likely become something boring like, "RED VET".

However, I am considering "REDACTD"...What do you think???

So, after checking, I found that a previous poster to this thread was correct, only 7 characters allowed (in my state) but a space or a hyphen may be placed within them. After much consideration I just sent an application for this:

KWKSLVR

It's available and I think it'll look pretty good on my silver car.
