Saw a license plate the other day "DATY..." had a little laugh when I saw it - wonder if they know what it means. Or if they got it as a private plate on purpose just for fun.

Anyone else seen funny references to the hobby in the day to day world...

Not quite the hobby, but I had a chuckle following a Chevy Bolt electric car with a plate that read: Y BY GAS.

If it was a reference to the hobby, it would be the reason to pass on a rim job and chew next door.

I remember around 1988 seeing a plate on a powder-blue Dodge Aries -- ie, a "K-Car" -- that said "K Car".

I assume this was an inside joke, because those were boring, plain cars, and I cannot imagine someone being that proud to own one.

How Dare you!
I had a couple and liked them just fine. In the 90's.

I should get one that says

DATO ME
When in Italy I see DATO all the time, which means "given".
Like "given Ahri loves dato..." lol
Which in Italian is "Dato che Ahri ama dato..."
Thus - if these are the first words your hear from a client with an Aussie inflection...then you'll know its me.

I saw a car in Calgary with PHA-Q spray painted on it. I always thought it would be a good license plate but never checked to see if it is in the parameters of being allowable.
Now I try not to draw attention to myself. What with the serial killer thing going on in my life right now. Best keep a low profile.
