Texas: Finally a state gets cool personlized plates

[patsparks]

for $190 per year or more (Popular plates are auctioned) you can have from 1 to 7 characters, letters and numbers in any order here. I have a personalised plate on my Prius, my Toyota Crown and my Hyosung GV650 motorbike. These have a 1 off cost of $170 each for life and must have 6 characters.

Then there are the special plates



And there are more!

Pennsylvania's "Flagship Niagara" plate was white letters on a sepia backgrond image. Illegible on the road.

here's a good example:

In Massachusetts, Cops probably love them. For each special plate, the first two letters are ALWAYS the same, depending on what cause it's for. For example, all Massachusetts Animal Coalition plates start with "SN" (for "Spay or Neuter" - no, really).

Our specialty plates are setup the same way. Our plates to support spaying & neutering start with IM. Plus they were designed by Mutts artist (& NJ resident) Patrick McDonnell.

For Texas plates, only five letters are allowed if you choose a certain style. Max is six for others.
