I saw one once that just said "SPLAT".

I hope it wasn't aviation or jumper themed.
 
Driving around Chicago today we saw LUV MY WDG. Had an aviation themed plate frame. Anyone have any ideas? My wife and I haven't figured it out yet.

I went for something that identifies me to other pilots, but "civilians" have no clue what it is:

People probably say, "Boy, those guys who love APPLES sure get their letters mixed up!"
 
another one I used to see was on a Fiat Abarth........"scusi" was the plate

I've had more than one person puzzling over my ham radio plates (WY0X) ask me if I was "from Wyoming or something".

Not kidding. Multiple.

Usually male. Usually in their 20s. Usually not looking like they were blessed with drinking from the fountain of knowledge, they just gargled a little.
 
at oshkosh 3-4 years ago pickup truck had
"AIRGASM"...

I'd like to get MNGD SPD for my Airbus loving wife, but I'm not sure if she'd find that dorky or not. I'm still on the fence about it.
 
Dang, I wish I could find the old picture I once snapped in our airport's parking lot. The plate said "F18-A10". Me like! It was a big ol' truck with some US insignia and I believe it might have belonged to a retired AF pilot.
 
Mary's candy-apple-red Mustang convertible had "MY P51", when we lived in Iowa.
 
Always wanted to ask him.. did he become an ace by shooting down 5 777s?


or is he an ace that happens to fly 777s...?

I saw someone with ERCOUPE tags the other day.
 
Who would get that plate? I'm surprised it got by the DMV.
 
ok, I'll be the first old fart out of touch hayseed to say it ... I don't get it.

And google wasn't much help.
 
Not aviation but passed a blue mini cooper being driven by dude in his early 50's and the plate was "BLUPILL"
 
I thought the last character was a 4. There are youtubes and references to Mangin 4 on google. No wonder I was confused.

I wanted to get "CZI" for my wife's car. She likes the idea... I may have to do it.

Because it's only the cool kids that are into ham radio?

I've been told I'm a decently intelligent guy, I'd have no idea what WY0X refers to, probably wouldnt care enough or be bored enough to bother asking, and if I did and you said it was ham radio, you'd probably get a "ahh" and I'd go get lunch.

Frankly I don't get the appeal with ham and most of the ham folks I've met ranged from kinda odd to full blown secret squirrel types.

Being surprised when folks don't get your ham call sign, name, whatever, that's slightly past odd.

Not sure what all the rest of that's all about but, the point was, seeing the letters WY on a Colorado plate, rarely would my thoughts be "oh! He's from Wyoming!"

Normal folks just ask,"What does that mean?" Just like you say.

It's a much smaller subset that kinda drools, and asks the Wyoming question.

Note that I didn't ask them to "get it", nor do most folks even feel the need to ask, also as you pointed out. It's a license plate.

I should just tell them the special slashed zero indicates a vehicle used to haul the chemicals for the chemtrails. LOL.
