Named my van "Ravenous" which might sound more aggressive than I intend.
It's got a 230 HP Subie engine in it, so it has been a very "hungry"
vehicle, both for parts and gas.

I sent my wife to get the plates, [KPNTKN] (actually available), but she
didn't want to pay the extra fee and so didn't.

I considered the plates, [HMRETR], but don't really want to race (might
lose).

My '76 Bug has the plates [HVNCDY] which most cool people have no problem
with.

Some guy in Oregon who is a wine importer wanted [WINE], but the state has
rules against religilous, nasty word or intoxicant -themed vanity plates.
The guy either sued or was going to, but ultimately lost out.  They should
have given him [WHINE].

Have a nice day.
