I once saw a black corvette with Nevada plates " UGO2SLO " but that is asking for trouble...

I was going to put ILIKBOX on the wife's Box but for some reason she wouldn't go for it.

Personally I liked it, I thought it worked well no matter which one if us was driving

She wants BOXSTAR or ESCARGO

I don't understand the correlation of ESCARGO, except for snail tracks?

Have her think about FUNNSUN.

I just found another classic. The guys had a problem with the plates "GETN SUM" and in his response letter he points out the the other guys name is Dickinson and suggests he change his name since some people might think it means something else. ie. Dick-in-son.

Not only is the letter address to DICK-IN-SON but did you notice that it is cc'd to PAT BUSH. Which could only be interpreted as I like to pat bush

Now I'm offended!

Those examples are pretty bad, and I know goofing on how conservative most things are here in Utah is beating a dead horse, but last year after a complaint by some moron they made a guy with a plate that said MERLOT have it changed or face a fine. Something about glorifying alcohol or something. Either way the poor sap had to have it changed even though he just was a wine lover (and his Lexus was kinda maroonish in color).
Seriously, if it wasn't for the great skiing and hiking here this state would be the most colossal laughing stock on the planet.

I thought everyone in Utah was a Mormon and had to drive around in a horse and buggy? How do you drive a Porsche in that kind of traffic?
