LMAO! That's perfect for Basset Hounds... we used to raise them... so cute and sweet... but the slobber and the hound dog smell was a little annoying... still, if I could get another dog, it'd be a Basset.

Doug,
I'm not trying to steal your thread. But there are a lot of great ideas out there. Not being the creative sort, I need some help.

I bought my wife a 2004 MCS and she is dying to drive the car from Louisville up to her sisters in Rockford. She has to take the "dog", Jasmine.

The JAZ:

Of course, I'll stay home and work. Not a problem.

I would also like to personalize my wifes car with "dog plates".Any help would be appreciated for special plates. I'm not sure if Kentucky has a limit on the number of letters?

Thanks for the ideas

So I motored on over to the OHIO Bureau of Motor Vehicles at lunch time. I have my paper work in hand and my top 5 plate Ideas. I try one it is taken in all configurations, I try another and the BMV employee tells me OHIO will never let that fly (Dam conservative state). So I chose another plate.

and the winner is:

Gromit801 with “FAST BAS” for Fast Basset and it is true since my Basset Hound Farley is fast for a basset hound plus he has 42” vertical leap.

So for this I owe Gromit801 A few beers or glasses of wine when we meet. If you are going to the dragon I will settle the payment there.

Not going to the Dragon any-year soon, but perhaps AMVIV might be a possibility.

HEY - WAIT A MINUTE!

I've never been a bridesmaid.
Being a married guy, however, I'm OK with that.

Congrats on the pl8s!

Here is the criteria.

The plate must refer to things that are near and dear to me. My mini, my love for Basset hounds, and that I grew up in NY. Now the plate could be all mini related or all Basset hound related (preferably not all NY related). Or a combination of the above.

I only have room for 7 charachters so be creative.

The Winner will get a a couple of beers (or Wine) at the Dragon.

You have to give us more info. You know how many 06 JCWs are running around ? Plenty.

Gotta give us hobbies, interests, something unusual about yourself.

Otherwise, you're going to get stuck with....

06JCWOW... or something routine, like that.
