    It appears that applications received around and after 10/17 are now part of the next 10K and are in a holding pattern, waiting to be released in January. I haven't seen any posts regarding 'confirmation' notices from the DMV about reception and processing of a 10K application.

    The numbers are based on the assumption that the DMV is processing 200 applications per day. Of course these are only assumptions, and based only on the limited data we have available.

    No - as mentioned here earlier, replacement stickers get new sticker numbers, and we don't know how many replacements there have been. The first 75,000 could run to sticker number 90000. It looks like it may be more like 82000, but we don't really know.

    About three weeks ago, I received #80276.

    I had thought that I had just made it under the wire. Interesting to find that your number doesn't match your...er...number.

    When did you mail in your application and when did you receive it?


    Thanks.

    Just an update from another forum, it looks like someone from early in the 10K batch has been processed!

    Post from today:
    --------------
    10/21: Mailed application (normal delivery)
    11/20: Bank statement shows $8 check was cashed
    --------------

    Post from today, 11/21/06:
    --------------
    They said that as of last week, they were down to 4,000 spaces left among the new 10,000 stickers to be issued on Jan 2.
    --------------

    By "spaces" I'm assuming that they've already received 6,000 applications and have space available in the 10K for 4,000 more.

    I am confussed how some members can get their Fastrak so quickly. The application form needs plate number. I faxed in my application and also snail mail in the orginal app. A week latter, I got the note back together with the snail mail application asking me for a copy of my registration. That really bums me out since I did not see anywhere in the application for Fastrak asking me to send that in the first place. Anyway, back to waiting for the stupid Fastrak which I will not really be using since in my 10 years in the Bay area, I have rarely crossed any bridges.

    This is my first post....

    Thanks for all the great tips and advice!

    I bought my 2007 Pruis on 10/19, got my plates and fastpass on 10/23, and mailed off my DMV paperwork for the HOV stickers on 10/24.

    My checking account FINALLY shows that my $8 check was cashed on 11/21!!

    Hopefully my stickers will be arriving soon.

    Thanks again for all the great info that is constantly being shared on this board!!

    -Dave

    My sticker application was sent off on Nov. 11th, so far my check has yet to be cashed. It sounds like I'm probably in the queue for the next 10k stickers though, I'm going to try and call tomorrow and see if I can get more info. Hopefully I'll be able to get my stickers, if not I'll just keep taking the train. :(

    It would be good to drive in slow lane for break-in period. Sometime HOV lane is too fast for new car break in.

    Got my Prius on 11/25. Paid the dealer $15 for expidited handling of the registration, they assured me it would be in the mail to the DMV on Monday, November 29th.

    Got the plates in the mail on Thursday 12/7. The application with the $8.00 check was sent Pri Mail that afternoon. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

    I sent my application & check in on 11/6/06 - DMV has not cashed my check yet - spoke with a DMV rep on another issue yesterday, asked her about stickers - she said the next batch of 4,000 would be issued after the first of the year. If anyone hears differently, please post.

    This is a little confusing; did you send in the application with a plate number or not?

    The application asks for your plate number, but you can submit registration information instead if you don't have your plate number yet. This is explained in the FasTrak FAQ:

    I'm thinking of buying a new prius before January 2007.
    Do you think I'll have any problems getting the stickers??

    Call this number DMV # 916-657-6560 but I think their answer will not be solided; however you might have an ideal.

    It's little bit gamble at this time.
