Well, I am going to get a personalized license plate and I am just not sure what I want...looking for some good "Hummer related" ideas. I went to the ACME License Plate Maker website and I know that I want the Texas "Wildlife" plate (has the horny toad on it) and I played around with some different ideas a bit but nothing I came up with really hit the spot.

What do ya think about "HMNG BY"????
I know, this one is kinda lame but I dont have a very good imagination when it comes to these kinda things....ANY SUGGESTIONS/IDEAS WOULD GREATLY BE APPRECIATED!!!!! http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Deep-Thinker.gif http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Help.gif

Here is a pic of the one I came up with....

Not to throw cold water on any ideas, but doesn't Texas limit vanity plates to 6 characters? Old high school buddy had "SCOOTER" in California, and was upset that he couldn't get it in Texas.

I guess to join the thread, I should at least come up with an idea.

How about:

H3 HOT E

??

Would work for a woman or a man in the Montrose area of Houston.

Well, I know that I did not do what I said I was gunna do...("I will post it tomorrow"), so, I am a bad person. http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Sorry.gif

Just an update..I sent in my three choices that the form asks you for and my choices were 1) H3LL YA, 2) OH H3LL, 3) H3LLYN and all of them were "not available" with the second and third choices circled with a green marker...whatever that means.
So, I just sent in another form with my next three choices...here they are, 1) H3LLA, 2) OVR KLL, 3) KLLR H3 (if I get "H3LLA" I am going to get a license plate frame that says something on the bottom part of the frame...haven't decided what yet, maybe something simple like "Cool" or "Tough"....I dunno yet. Anyhow, just an update on the vanity plate stuff..sorry for procrastinating

Muckfly, you have to print out the form from their website and fill it out then send it in...they do not have an online form you can fill out unfortunately. Here is the website:

http://www.dot.state.tx.us/vtr/spplates/specialplate.htm?nbr=77

The fee is $40.00/year in addition to your current yearly registration....the limit is 6 letters/numbers and two spaces are allowed (you can use just a blank space or the little Texas state figure for the space) and you get to fill out 3 choices on the form in case some are already taken. Good luck on whatever you are wanting...I just sent in my 3rd form (that's 6 plates that are already taken....UGH!).

Well, it's been a while since I have posted on this forum....too many excuses to share...blah blah blah...anyway, just want to share my vanity plate FINALLY...it's not really what I wanted but after sending in FIVE forms (that's 15 plates that are already taken and/or rejected!!!) I just took it when they gave me a go for this one. I will probably end up just changing it when I can come up with something better.

In case you can't figure out what the heck it means...RUN OVER IT
