I was wondering, does anyone here use specialty plates aside the generic issues? I see people here with alot of NFL TEXANS license plates, I see personal names on their license plates, or nicknames like "MISSY", I have seen RADIO OPERATORS for the HAMS, Names of football players of the Texans, other license plates like WILDLIFE and a picture of some animal,
"TEXAN NATIVE", then there are the U.S. GOVERNMENT official business license plates, the cops have their special plates, forget what it says...on occassion I see DV license plates for Disabled Veterans, on very few occasions I see military specialty plates, but when I do, I think they look pretty cool which shows pride in his/her service.
I'm waiting on some military license plates myself for my car, still hasn't come in the mail yet. This would be my fourth time I get them and no extra fees related to them. Some states give plates if you served in certain conflicts or even just being in the service during a time of conflict or war. I see in some states, I could probably qualify for around 4 license plates, but in others, maybe just one or two. Some states have license plates for the organization you belong to, such as the VFW or AMERICAN LEGION or MARINE CORPS LEAGUE. Some states have the MERCHANT MARINE licesne plates, for those that served during WWII, but I see in other states, if you can prove you are in the Merchant Marines, you can get a license plate. Some plates I feel I should qualify for but for some technicality, I don't, others I qualify for seem unjust and not really viable in my eyes. It is neat to find out you may qualify for some license plate you may like to put on your car. Other times, the criteria may become a disappointment, but nothing to lose sleep over for sure. I wonder when the airlines will have their own specialty license plates. Like "UNITED AIRLINES" and on the bottom plate "AIRCRAFT TECHNICIAN" with the UNITED LOGO on the license plate. That would be neat.
But one thing is certain. There is always some license plate out there that can meet anyones needs, and if you don't qualify for one, you can make one up with a name like "SISSY""! May cost you some money but you got it.
