teslamotorclub: Tesla Roadster vanity license plates part 1

From the EVnut site:

�

Maybe on a European license plate, but it would never fit in the USA.
�

It would fit here in VA !!!! hummmmm....
�

Rheazombi has lots of good suggestions.

A variant on SHOCKNG might be SCHKNG, or perhaps SHOCKER or SCHKR, though this might get misinterpreted by high school kids.

.
�

It's a California plate.

COIL (get it?) (taken in CA)

Now taken in WA state, as well. :wink:
�

Do you get AAA insurance and roadside assistance with that? :redface:
�

That brings up an interesting question. Will AAA adopt a system that will allow you to charge your battery enough to get you limping home if necessary as they will give you a couple gallons of gas ?
�

That is probably up to the individual towing companies.
I have not heard of, and doubt there are any tow services with specialized EV equipment yet.

That is a good one. I like it Dave.
There was no need for the big secret on that one.

Ha! Love it. Probably more appropriate for the Volt, though that will be a RE'EV or E-REV or whatever we're calling serial hybrids now days.

"AC POWR" ties in well with the whole Nikola Tesla thing...
�

The problem is, most people would think "AC POWR" is a reference to his air conditioning system.
�

I wasn't going to pipe in, but I guess I will. My new plate is MYTSLAS. I know, boring:smile:

Mighty service level agreements?
�

Yes, exactly. No, it's supposed to be MY TSLA S, or 'my tesla model S'. I drew in dots between the words/letter with a permenant marker to clarify. Hope that's not illegal.
�

Defacing a license plate is in fact illegal in all 50 states :biggrin:

Bummer!..............................

That's our Roadster! Cathy and I brainstormed on possible plates for months before finding one we really liked that wasn't already taken. We were very happy when the plates arrived just in time to debut them at the owner drive on Sunday.

That photo is more awesome work from Scott Ferguson getting lots of attention. It's currently featured on Tesla's web page for the Seattle store. We're honored that he chose our car for that portrait.
�

Those pictures on your site are great. Thanks Tom. It's very helpful to see Roadster of different colors parked next to each other. It's tough to get a good idea of what it actually looks like from Tesla's site so real pictures are very helpful.
Does anyone think a sticky thread/gallery with photos from people's car's would be a good idea with a description of color/leather combo?

Dave

edit: I guess the paint color discussion mostly serves that purpose
�

And... color on the web is a crapshoot. No, wait, it's worse. It's getting better very, very slowly.

Tesla was doing that in the first year. Shooting pictures of all sorts of customer color combinations coming out of the factory. I think it's an owner only page so you can choose for locking in.
�

Driving back from camping on Highway 9, I saw a Roadster, then a little later a RAV4 EV with license plate "MOBL OHM".

Ironically a couple minutes later a big Suburban drove by with license plate "SUKS GAS".
�

Would be fun to have an needed SUV with "SUKS GAS" and an
EV with "GAS SUKS".:smile:
�

I was thinking about VOLTPWR
�

Another idea:
GaussHog
Or Gausser

It is now more directly sun powered. As seen here

Spotted this one in a videogame thread about Forza 3:

I suppose this could also go in the Charging Stations thread...except that I have no idea where this is. :frown:

Get a poster made of that pic toutizes. It's gorgeous! Was that taken this past weekend when it was so gorgeous outside?

No, it was actually taken in the spring, but yeah beautiful weather around here these days. No need for the hard top!

Yes, that license plate was ordered by Martin, then he decided to use "Mr.Tesla" and let that one go a friend. The owner is a member of this forum.

That carpool lane sticker placement probably isn't legit.
�

My second sighting this week. This time it's #176, which I'd spotted before (in the exact same place -- downtown San Mateo). This time, though, it's got a vanity plate. It would seem the owner has solar panels at his home.

�

LOL OIL is mine. :biggrin:

I wanted to see how long it would take between getting the vanity plate and the photo appearing in this thread on its own. The answer? About 3 weeks.
�

Love it!
�

It actually made me LOL, which is a rarity!
�

Hmm.... Maybe I can still get "710 707" and mount it upside down!

You can have my front plate if you want. :biggrin:

I am also having fun seeing the difference between people who "get it" (they usually laugh out loud) and those who don't. ("What does lahl oil mean?")

Another Roadster Sport owner has been revealed !!! Great news.

Have you received a production start date yet? Mine is June 8th because the exec leather package doesn't become available on the production line until that date. Delivery in early July hopefully.

In Menlo Park for service today ...

Thanks TEG.
(Why is it when I use the "Manage Attachments" button to upload JPG, all it does for me is a thumbnail ? (Using IE8))
�

My iPhone camera sucks and you can't read it in this picture (nevermind how I was bouncing along in the passenger seat of my friend's car, hehe) , but the plate here is "ECO RUBY"

This was on 101 South in the Bay Area between South San Francisco and San Bruno near the 380. I suppose this could've gone in the Random Sightings thread, but I don't remember seeing this plate here so I thought I'd use this thread. :wink:
�

For my Model S:

�

More entries:

MY EV
NOFUEL
NOSOUND
GR8 EV= Great EV
FULLPWR= Full Power
ALLBTNS= All Buttons (Gear Select)
�

Here's some I thought of:

In reference to the single speed tranny:
"NOSHFTN" - No shifting
"ONEGEAR"
"SNGLSPD" - Single Speed

Because the Roadster is awesome:
"AWSMEV"- Awesome EV

Various power references, from it being clean to the 0 RPM torque:
"PUREPWR"
"CLENPWR" - Clean Power
"ALLPWR" - In reference to the 0 RPM torque
"0RPMPWR" - Similar to above

Since "NOGAS" is already taken:
"NOPTRL" - No petrol
�

My two seaters

Here's a photo of my stable of two seaters.

The Roadster is faster :smile:

But the Remos G-3 gets me off the ground. Intentionally, that is :wink:

The personalized Colorado Carbon Fund plates read "I SQR R". I saw the Washington state plates with that rubric and had to have it for mine, too. You can't see it in this photo, but the interior is saddle leather, a classy combo with the racing green exterior.

No pic since it was dark and I was driving, but I spotted a Roadster getting on 101 North from Millbrae tonight just like I was with the plate "ZZRO GAS" :smile:

Just got word that my car is in the final production stage. I'm thinking about getting a vanity license plate. There are regualtions though that can't be changed and therefore will have to get worked in. Maybe you guys can help and can give me some input.

The parameters are: The plate has to start with a 'W' (Which I'd like to work in) followed by a 3-6 digit letter/number combination. This sequence has to start with a letter and end with a number.

Any ideas?

"ELEQUIK": I like it!

You will softly and suddenly vanish away,
And never be met with again.

Love the plate. What are those red reflectors at the bottom of the car? European regulations?
�

Yes, Swiss/Austrian/German roadsters seem to have slightly different tail lights and reflectors. Apparently a rear fog light replaces one of the backup lights too.

Minor picky privacy issue ... which may or may not amount to nothing ... they are standard issue plates. And I guess a "whiting out" on the custom vanity plates would defeat the purpose of publishing them in this thread ... but I thought at least the frames were still worth showing on the standard plates ... Hope that sort of makes sense ?
�

Makes sense. No point posting generic issue numbered plates. But thanks for showing the 'cute' frame slogans!

A rare plate indeed. Tesla fans (man and band) had that plate swooped up long before the car came along.

I used to have a custom bumper sticker "Crush the ICE", but removed it after some people mistakenly assumed it was about Immigration/Customs Enforcement.
Have to be careful with those ambiguous TLAs.

Someone also mis-understood the NIMH stickers and assumed it was some sort of ambulance!

The "Secret of NiMH" sounds like a great article title....

side note - the NIMH in The Secret of NIMH does refer to the National Institute of Mental Health... But the cartoon was also the first thing I thing I thought of when I read TEG's post

Sorry about the (ICE KLR).... I was not promoting anything negative bout the Government.
