    The latest idea I had for a personalized plate for a Prius was:
    • GIZMOBL
    since it is the nicest car and largest gadget that we've ever owned.

    I doinked around testing ideas for personalized plates.

    I can't have WITCH (darn it)...
    BROOM is already taken
    MY BRM and MI BRM are taken
    TOGOB4 is taken (state of WA, thought I might have a chance...)

    I have numbers :) ... but I have a cool license plate holder that supports an animal rescue organization!

    why can't you have WITCH? is it already taken? or do they not allow it? (and if they don't allow it... why the hell not??????????????????)

    In the state of Washington, official vehicles have plates that begin with W... so, beginning with W is a no-no for personalized plates.

    Not exactly a personalized plate, but I thought this was a pretty cool frame.
    Found it while Googling around on the net. Only cost $1.20 (free shipping).

    Pretty clairvoyant in hindsight, considering the latest news on Google going hybrid...

    A good friend has this on his 2004 Prius

    TIHZ HO

    Before his Prius he had TIHZWA

    Think about it.

    It's probably for the best.
    For a rather short time, I had a pentacle on the back of my Malibu, and the amount of hostility directed at me was daunting! It wasn't even a BIG pent, it was only about 5" across.

    I can just imagine what "WITCH" would do...

    My personalized plate is DEV ROOT

    It's a geek thing: /dev/root used to be the hard-drive that contained the Unix OS, root is the superuser/administrator for a Unix/Linux box, and DEV are my initials.

    I wanna draw two eyes before the "A" but that is illegal. Might put on some stickers for a car show.

    A system administrator friend of mine had for his personalized license plate
    • NEV DULL
    which is a reference to the Unix "bit bucket" /dev/null.

    Nice. I saw a sports car with 3VOM.

    Sorry, I don't get this one.
    Most people don't get mine either (LOTOLV4), so I'm thinking of getting something different. In Illinois you can't have 8 letters, and you can't mix letters and number more than once (otherwise I'd have LOT2LV4, which may have avoided some confusion).
