I was tricked into putting on a plate!

Had to affix it permanently, in other words, if it is removed…there will be scars.

I did my best to not allow the plate to obstruct airflow. It made me wonder COULD REQUIRING A LICENSE PLATE CAUSE A REDUCTION IN MPG?

Think about it for a second. On our cars at least the plate hangs out there like a wrapper off a candy bar. It is flat. It grabs air. It is on the front. It would destroy surface air over the center of the vehicle. Don't know how to prove it but the result in ˝ to 1 mile per tank and, IF you have ever had to walk a mile, that can be HUGE over the life of a vehicle.

Think about it, every time you fill up you could have gotten another mile more, if not for those state regulations.

We ALL GO FURTHER WITH LESS REGULATION!
