Need help with idea name for plate....

Ok, well I posted that I was going to get HUMV THIS as my lic plate however the MTO/DMV will not allow me to get it I have appealed it three times since they feel that there is to strong of a sexual connotation. Sooooo I'm stuck, they wont let me use anything with HUM in it so I can't use HUMR, or HMMV, HMMR, etc you get the idea.


So please help me out I am trying to decide on the ones I have posted here.


Thanks guys. Cant wait to get a better plate.

Why have a plate that attempts to bash an inferior vehicle? It's like you're stooping to the H2 crowd's level. Think about it. The X hauls more stuff, more payload, tows MUCH more, gets better MPG, and does it for less $$$. The H2 looks kinda cool, but I surely do not want one.

Why not a plate like GOT FUEL or L& YACHT ("&" is allowed in VA)?

So you guys think that I should put my old plate on 2L8IWON instead of getting a new plate?

My g/f calls my Excursion "Behemoth". That's 8 letters...in Pa we only get seven.

(Of course this is the same woman that calls her Mexico built Jetta "Gretel".)

Not necessarily, but it is better than the poll choices listed above.

when I was still shopping for My current X, I was with my wife driving in her little Saturn.. A beautiful X pulled up alongside us at a light.. and I said "see hon, thats what I want".. she was a bit shocked as she looked up at the X and muttered.. "thats a big 'Mother' "

Ever since the kids refer to my truck as "the Mother"

If you're trying to say the X is better than the H2, in general I would agree. If you're referring to the "ride quality" of the X, that leaves a lot of room for debate ... and the H2 would probably win in that category.

The fact that it is a Ford means little to me since I am not brand loyal when it comes to motor vehicles. After having owned a few Japanese vehicles, and seeing what's happening to our economy (jobs going to other countries), I am simply determined to buy American-made whenever I can. And to me, that means non-Chrysler, too (that Mercedes connection bothers me). I'm also going to get rid of my Kawasaki dual-purpose bike and buy a Harley.

Well I have ordered H2 This, and for the mean time put the 2L8-IWON on my Excursion taking my Explorer off the road and trying to sell it, I dont drive it any more no point in paying for the dang truck if I dont use it.
