Michigan Rulez all other states!!!

[SVTfcs]

In our efforts to start some entertaining conversations here, I am going to rave about a matter that is very important to me. This subject is one that many of you regularly take for granted.

For this single reason, Michigan is the best state in the country!

I'm talking about license plates. Yes, that's right license plates!!!

Ok, I live in a Fraternity house and most of my brothers are from out of state. I laugh at these fools daily because they have license plates on the front of their cars! I mean come on, what the hell is that all about?

How would you like your SVT to have one of these ugly pieces of steel on its' front bumper? I'm not sure about you SVTunit, but if the secretary of state told me I had to put my SVT Focus through this torture, I would write a letter to the governor or something. And white venom, imagine how silly your cobra would look if this revolting garb infected it.

Why do other states put their residents through this anguish? Maybe they charge double the fee to renew your registration. I think I paid over 100 bucks for the sticker currently on my plate. Would that price double to add one on the front license plate? I mean you if factor in how many registrations get renewed every year, that ends up to be a lot of $.

Not only is it hideous looking, but it probably actually adds to wind resistance. Thus, ensuing our engines to work that much harder. If I had to write a letter to some politician, I would mention this. I'm sure all those tree huggers in the government would love to hear that this is actually causing more fuel to be burned. Then again, I don't think they would sympathize with us considering how much displacement is in most of your engines.

:wtf: I see no logical justification in screwing a piece of ugly metal to the front of any SVT do you? :wtf:

Hey I should share my comment to the West Michigan forum...

I agree that front plates suck big time! However, there are times when they can add to the appearance of a particular model -- my Bullitt looks way KEW-L with the Calif plate JJZ 109 on the front, just like "Frank's". There is no way that I'd want ANY plate on the front of my Cobra however!!!:cool:

You're right that a front tag sucks. I live in a state that requires them. Can you help me? How can I get mine off? The tag mount has plastic tabs holding it to the bumper, and if I pull them out, I'm left with ugly holes. Any ideas?
My 98 Cobra came with the mount already on it, however, my 85 Mustang GT, and my 90 T-Bird SuperCoupe were both nekid as a jay bird on front. I only got pulled over once, and he just gave me a warning.
And by the way, there's no stickers on the front, and no extra charge because of 2 tags. But we only pay $52 a year. Plus our state isn't cut in half by a lake (well, almost by the Chesapeake Bay). But that doesn't diminish the fact that our state rules because we have a wicked state flag, that appears on every plate, front and back. But you guys do have a town that makes good cars. Lets call it even. Have a great day.
