    License Plates

    Here's a thread where we can all learn something new. I was wondering what slogan is on your license plate. New Jersey is the "Garden State" (you just can't find a better tomato than a Jersey tomato! ) and Pennsylvania, where I am originally from, is the "Keystone State." I thought this would be a fun thread since there are so many states represented here. How about it, what's on your license plate?

    Maryland doesn't put anything besides the name and the MD shield on ours - the original one anyway. There is the "Treasure the Chesapeake" one and the agriculture one that says something about farming... but that's it. MD plates are lame.

    kentucky is "The Bluegrass State." This is what Kentucky's license plate looks like. It's actually caused a lot of people to complain, because some people find the slogan and smiley face kinda lame. I don't really care either way.



    Here is the Spay/Neuter plate I want to get next time my renewal comes up:

    Ohio used to say "The Heart of it All" but for a few years we have these new bicentennial plates that say "Birthplace of Aviation" (Wright brothers and all that) We had to turn in our Texas plates that we had all our lives and they had the slogan "The Lonestar State"

    Liz- I love the special Ky spay & neuter plates!

    I'm not really sure, but I think we have "Land of Lincoln" on our plates....or maybe we used to. They changed them recently and I know what they look like, but I couldn't tell you what they say. Funny how you see them ALL the time but don't really look at them.

    I LOVE those Animal Friendly plates. Illinois had one they called Pet Friendly....until a company called Pet Friendly decided to sue and try and get some money out of Illinois for using "their" name. Evidently the whole thing still isn't settled because we still can't get pet friendly plates. I want one. Why don't they (Illinois) just use Animal Friendly like the other states. Sometimes the politics of Illinois and Chicago just really irks me.

    Indiana's are boring and ugly (they are just flat boards... no pressed letters/numbers) with no slogan. They do have a TON of specialized plates, though. The most common one is a nature one or something.

    Ontario's is "Yours to Discover" There are 4 letters on the left and 3 numbers on the right, and there is a crown in the middle seperating them.

    Missouri is the "Show Me" state as in "I'm from Missouri so you have to show me." (little over used if ya live here)

    Our are white at the top and fades to green at the bottom. We have Missouri in blue and underlined with a green squiggle and Show Me State at the bottom in blue.

    Here are the most common ones in my area. Nevada has something like 20 different plate types you can buy

    The basic plate *I love what they put on there for the picture*




    The old plate *they went over to the above plate style in the 80's sometime*




    The UNR (University of Nevada, Reno) suporter plate *I wish these dern things werent so friggen expensive*



    The Support Lake Tahoe plate *Procedes from these plates go to help keep the lake clean. A lot of people who live on the nevada side of tahoe like to get these because it makes them feel "special"*

    Ours is pretty plain. It says "Je me souviens" which means "I will remember". It just has the fleurs-de-l'ils everywhere
