    That's our plate, and we haven't had problems yet. I've actually gotten several people asking if it really does get that (and we get right around it most of the time now).

    Since your car is red, how about "Lil Apple", "Cardinal", "Red Indy"?

    Reason being is that you live in Indiana, the Cardinal is the state bird, Lil Apple could just mean that the car looks like a little red delicious apple, and Red Indy means that the car is red and from Indiana.

    Here are a few more:

    KIXGAS (was my first choice...my state of Wisconsin wouldn't let me have this one)
    PREEEUS
    CONSRVN
    GASKIKN
    MUCHMPG
    KYOTO (to emphasize the Kyoto protocols for global warming)
    ERTHWYZ
    GR8 MPG
    TOGOB4 (which is what Prius actually means)
    LESSGAS
    GASNOMO
    BN GRN
    GRR8MPG
    GASDIET
    NOGUZLR
    H8GAS

    NOFUELN (this is what I am using in combination with my license plate holder which says "This is my war on terrorism" Many different levels of uses for this one. A play on the words "No fooling". A fun plate....which is the reaction I get from people who comment on it.

    That's odd...MN let me have:

    KIK GAS

    on my 2005.

    I just applied for plates for my wife's new 2006, choices, in order:

    CHRG IT
    (my wife's motto!)

    LO CO2

    MY SUV

    I'm happy for you. But (and this is a quote) they said it was too close to "Kicks nice person" and they wouldn't allow that. What can I say?

    Maybe I am too smug - but I don't get the South Park plate.

    "Want my MPG?" is all I can come up with.

    You could mash 'red' and 'Prius' together and use 'Predius'. Do you get 6 or 7 characters where you are?

    I could offer suggestions, but apparently I'm not the best at that, I try to get too clever. I chose LOTOLV4 for my car a few years back, and I've gotten maybe one person to figure it out correctly. Some ask if I won or love the lottery, others think it's "lot to love" and the four is incidental. So I'm thinking of changing too, but haven't done so yet. (I'll give the answer in a following post, for those who want the challenge of thinking it over first).

    I like the "PUK OFEC" idea, but that's a little too confrontational for me. PRIUS NV might not go over well with my conservative parents.

    'Lot to live for'?

    Don't feel bad, nerfer. Nobody gets 'hyo' either. Even when I say it goes with the colour, I still get blank looks. So much for thinking it was too obvious.

    What about the people who might not share your viewpoint?
