We're off to DMV tomorrow to register our "plateless" car We've had so many ignorant "nice Lotus!" shouts from other vehicles that we actually talked (ok, joked) about getting NOLOTUS as a vanity plate. Apparently we have to get regular plates first, then request vanity plates later.
Thanks for the post Bonnie!�

Jaff I thought everything was bigger in Texas? :biggrin::wink:
�
Jul 12, 2011
kgb That's right! The letters are so big, we can only fit 6 on a standard license plate. I know what you're thinking... why don't we make our license plates bigger? It's those darn Feds... we are fed up with them for many reasons, we debate seceding all the time. :cursing:�

Ladman23 I went to DMV in CA yesterday and got ELETRK for my Tesla. People still have no clue it is electric, uses no oil or gas, and gets up to 60 in under 4 sec. I figure i'll start the education by eletric and go from there. Other plates that were available still in CA, that I passed on were...

zip oil
zlch gas
nooo oil
0 emishn

0 60sub4

Jaff What about "past gas"...or is that too many letters?�
Jul 14, 2011
kgb I was trying to get
0-60 in 3.7 down to just 6 characters, wasn't possible. So I went with what I have above for the same reason as @Ladman23. No one here understands that this is electric. Closest I came was this:

Doug_G I originally bought "N TESLA" for my car, in honor of the famous inventor. But as I've mentioned before in this thread, my Roadster arrived with the #1 Ontario Green Vehicle plates - GVAA 001. Couldn't take those off!
So I stuck the "N TESLA" plates on my G37. Now every time someone sees it they say, "does that mean Not Tesla?" Even my Ranger said that. Sigh.�

Todd Burch My personal rules for vanity plates:
1) No inside jokes. They're not funny to the 99.999% of people that read the plate.
2) if you can't figure them out in about 3 seconds, try something else�
Sep 12, 2011

TEG Wrong thread? I don't see a vanity plate in that picture.�
Oct 8, 2011
dadaleus They all seem a bit odd (extra zero, and why is it 400th?, and why 10TESLA instead of 1 TESLA?), but not sure I get your meaning TEG.�
Oct 9, 2011
TEG They all use the letter O instead of the number 0 (zero) in places where one would want a zero.
I had that happen once with a personalized plate where I tried to use 900 (for 900cc) as part of the plate, but the DMV created it as "9OO" (with letters).
Once I got stopped and when the highway patrol tried to run the 900 (nine-zero-zero) part it came back as not a valid plate.
I wonder if those cars would suffer the same issue if someone tried to "run their plate" and used zeros instead of letter Os.
Check how a letter O looks more like a box shape, with a zero (at the end) being more oval (tall and thin):
I wonder if it is just a clerk or OCR trying to scan in and mis-entering letters instead of numbers when they create it?
I wonder what would happen if you tried to get a personalized plate with a mix of zeros and letter Os like 0O0O0O�

Oct 9, 2011
TEG By the way,
I think the slashes through the letters Os in "O OIL O" were added by hand,
4OOth was probably meant to be 400th as the 400th Roadster,
and 1OTESLA was probably meant to be 10TESLA for a 2010 Tesla.�
Oct 9, 2011
Mycroft WA state gets around that. In WA, the number 1 and the letter I are the same character as are the number 0 and the letter O. I'm guess they're all ones and zeros for computer purposes.�
Oct 9, 2011
NigelM Or: 1.0 Tesla as in a 2008 model?
Or: I O(we) Tesla as in a leased/financed Roadster?
Or: 10 Tesla as in measurement of magnetic fields and referencing brushless motors?
Or: Roadster VIN #0010
Or: just someone who likes levitating frogs using a 10 tesla magnetic coil....

vfx Back in the day if you tired to get any two-number combination in front of "TESLA" (XXTESLA) all 1 though 99 choices were available. If you wanted the company name (and back then is was also the car name) you could slap a coul'a numbers on the front to get TESLA on your plate. Which number pairs would you think would go first?�
Oct 9, 2011
NigelM 42...?�
Oct 9, 2011
TEG FYI, "1OTESLA" is not a 2008, and not VIN#10. It is a 2010 Model 2.0�
Oct 10, 2011
TEG I think the TESLAXX combo is more popular.
I had seen pictures of all of these on California Roadsters:
TESLA6
TESLA16
TESLA18
TESLA23
TESLA29
TESLA44
TESLA55
TESLA64
TESLA78
TESLA84
Note, not all of those are signature 100. Some low numbered ones were taken by Founders' and VP cars, so some Sig100 customers might have not had a chance to get the plate they wanted.�
Oct 10, 2011
Bradleybang 1OTESLA is mine.
It was ordered meaning 2010 Tesla. Ordered it when they anounced model year as 2010. Although I got it in 2009. 10 has meaning to me. Its my birthday today 10/10 and as a soccer player I always have played with 10 as jersey number.
and yes its a letter O. I always wonder if it would mess up a parking ticket. Luckily have not gotten any to find out yet.
As for levitating frogs.... I had left the top off this morning and ran out when it started raining. Did not see any frogs leap out.�
