    said some would be offended. Oh well I got the H.O.V plate instead. I will hope it adds to the value of my car when I want to sell it.

    A friend of mine wanted NCC1701, but it was denied. He then requested NCCI70I, substituting I for 1. That was accepted, but when he got the plates they read NCC1701 instead. :D

    :lol: the fact that I know that makes me one too I guess. :lol:
    Glad your friend got the one he wanted and besides the “I†substitute isn’t as cool and the actual “1â€.

    I mostly like the movies but have recently gotten into ds9. I get the dvd’s from netflix and am now up to season 3. :rolleyes:

    In some states they have a list of words and phrases or 'sounds likes' that you cannot use. Not sure about AZ.

    In Virginia that would include "3MTA3" (think mirror reflection). I asked the DMV clerk how many times that one had been requested--she said "hundreds" :D

    I can see why it was rejected (in case you don't get it, use an "I" for a vowel in the first word instead of an "A").

    :)

    I thought they would let it slide to because I even gave the url to the FAQ website for OPEC. I said I was an employee of the site. Hahaha

    A friend of mine who is a Ford fan actually had this on his plates in VA:

    FAH Q GM

    I was asked if mine-- KICGAS -- actually passed, but I think the double entendre is not overt.

    This site is still up.

    F. Opec Jewelers.

    I believe it is an elaborate hoax site designed by the seeker of a certain vanity plate to justify his choice. He sent the URL to the DMV of his state and they bought it.
