Correct, I wear NH tags, and 1 more letter than that plate.

Guess I should have checked a little closer!!

Here's a New Hampshire vanity plate, 13 MPG, seen recently on a grey Porsche sports car.

Friend of mine has a Porcshe with the NH Plate.. EZ-PASS

Argie's Wife · 05-28-2011, 11:26 AM

On the way to work this morning, I got behind BOATN

(NH tags on a truck)...

Pepper · 05-30-2011, 06:16 PM

Yesterday I saw a very clever NH plate: BO-KS4U. Obviously the driver is creative in more ways than one!

One of my favorite ever, which I see frequently around town: IMAREK I crack up every time I see it.

Rattlesnake Guy · 05-30-2011, 07:35 PM

I sat in line at the town hall while the couple in front of me tried vanity plate after vanity plate with "naughty meanings". I felt bad for the clerk who kept telling them, "nope the state won't let you have that either". I felt worse for me as I had to wait while the brain trust just kept trying to say anything inappropriate they could think of. I had a few ideas for them but had enough sense to keep them to myself.

My father frequents this forum and recommended it to me; as a regular forum user I figured this would be a great place to join! It's great to become a member of a forum comprised of local people!

My Vanagon with a Subaru EJ22 motor swap, had it for six years. Vanity plate #1

My Nissan Versa also has a vanity plate, although it does not really make any sense and I can never come up with an actual reason for getting it! Alas, Kung-POW! This Versa is the fourth car to be graced with the KungPow plate!

...that is freakin' hilarious.

Any chance you've seen (or are a fan of) "Dumb & Dumber"?

If so, you'll know what I mean, if not, you should see it. You may get a chuckle out of it (stupid, sophomoric humor, but humor nonetheless).

I've seen Dumb & Dumber, but I (assuming my username could be a reference?) don't remember a whole lot from it. I started contributing to online forums at age 13 (I'll be 21 this fall) and Bubs has always been my username.

Rusty · 06-04-2011, 07:37 PM

This isn't a vanity plate but I thought it was pretty funny.

Jim Carrey goes across country in a van that looks like a dog and they call it the Shaggin' Wagon.

"Chicks dig it", he says at one point, and it always struck me as funny...told ya it was sophomoric humor...lol.

Kung Pow Enter the Fist movie is one of the stupidest, yet funniest movies to ever hit the big screen. For like, maybe a day.

Gatto Nero · 06-08-2011, 01:42 PM

Not lake related but my son, an Army ROTC Cadet at Norwich, just got this plate for his bike. I was shocked it was available.

RailroadJoe · 06-08-2011, 01:46 PM

I don't do G-Mailo. What does the plate read?

Jmo77011 · 06-08-2011, 04:45 PM

PB4UGO is my neighbor! I see the truck on my morning walk, and it always makes me smile.

Why? It's not a swear word...

From Wiki:

Hooah (pronounced /ˈhuːɑː/) is a U.S. Army (and rarely Canadian Army) battle cry used[1] by soldiers and also in use by the U.S. Air Force airmen "referring to or meaning anything and everything except no."

It's all though the movie Scent of a Woman - if you've seen that movie, then you've heard that terms a few dozen times...

SteveA · 06-09-2011, 10:18 AM

Saw this one today at Loews in Gilford..

New Hampshire Plate: IAM1UP

Bet the driver is a golfer... and probably lousy at math... like most golfers

ApS · 06-21-2011, 01:39 AM

If you're following this plate around the lake on a weekend, be prepared to stop at every yard sale, and watch about a dozen women go "shopping".

I finally got my Lake Winnipesaukee themed license plate!

The straight shaft inboard/propeller really helps with our gas mileage.

This rear window is brought to you by Gator Signs of Gilford, along with the Winnipesaukee.com Store and Fargo from the Little Mount thread.

(It may be hard to tell, but that is a Winnipesaukee.com sticker in the upper left corner of the window.)
I think I may be a nerd.

tis · 06-15-2012, 10:59 AM

I LOVE that plate!

patman · 06-15-2012, 11:27 AM

My favorite for the area...and no, it's not mine:

camp guy · 06-15-2012, 12:04 PM

I am fascinated by vanity plates, and all the various attempts to represent the Lake or other surrounding areas. From you, RG, I would expect nothing less than what you have - great job.

(My plate, PCONE, goes back to 1968 !)

I just checked that coolpl8z.com link and "MMMBEER" is now at #25 and "IFARTED" is now at #72.

I used to have a vanity plate that might have made both the "banned in NH" list and the coolpl8z.com list; actually, I'm surprised it doesn't show up on the banned list now. That plate was "QQQQ".

Those that "got it" usually pointed and laughed! The few people that didn't "get it" until I explained it to them laughed once they heard the explanation (my mother was in this group, she thought it was hilarious!). Then there was the one guy that complained to DMV (an elderly person apparently with no sense of humor) and I received a letter from DMV telling me to turn it in and pick something else.

I only had "QQQQ" for about 7 months; the replacement was "-BFD-", my way of retaliating for having to give up "QQQQ". I ended up with "-BFD-" for a few years! The funny thing was, the clerk at DMV that gave me "QQQQ" gave a knowing smirk when I told her what I wanted but she gave it to me anyway!

My current plate is "SCHWING", taken from the movie "Wayne's World".

RailroadJoe · 08-16-2013, 03:44 PM

How about "QQ+QQ"

BroadHopper · 08-16-2013, 04:45 PM

My aunt has 'BP 49' which is her initials and the year she graduated from high school. I ask for 'RP 69' which is my initials and the year I graduated. and you would never guess they would not approve because of the 69. Yet I have seen standard plates with 69 somewhere in the numbers.

So I ask for 'RLP13' and they accept! You would think '13' will be criminal but I guess not.

Back in the days I had a Hemi with the plates 'HUMBLE', that will be another story.
